Description

A new genus and species of Archostematan beetles, Gondvanocoleus chikatunovi n. gen. & sp., is described from an isolated elytron from the Upper Permian Belmont locality in Australia. Gondvanocoleus n. gen. differs from other members of the family Asiocoleidae in having only one row of cells in the middle part of the elytral field 3 and in having unorganized cells not forming rows near the elytral apex. Further relationships of the new genus with other asiocoleids are discussed. The fossil record of the Asiocoleidae is briefly overviewed.

Notes

Новый род и вид жуков-архостемат, Gondvanocoleus chikatunovi n. gen. & sp., описаны по изолированному надкрылью из верхнепермского местонахождения Бельмонт в Австралии. Gondvanocoleus n. gen. отличается от остальных родов семейства Asiocoleidae присутствием только одного ряда ячей в средней части предшовного поля и не организованных в ряды ячей в апикальной части надкрылья. Обсуждены связи нового рода с другими азиоколеидами. Дан краткий обзор палеонтологической летописи Asiocoleidae.
