First record of a fungus weevil (Coleoptera; Anthribidae) from the Upper Cretaceous Arzamazovskaya Formation, Primorsky Krai, Russian Far East

摘要

A new fungus weevil, Arzamazorhinus neli gen. et sp. nov. belonging to the subfamily Anthribinae is described from Primorsky Krai, Upper Cretaceous, Turonian - Coniacian. The new genus differs from other genera of the tribe Ecelonerini in the ventral antennal strobes and rather long rostrum. It is distinguished from the genus Cretanthribus Legalov, 2009 (tribe Cretanthribini) fungus weevil described from Cretaceous deposits of Khetana in the Russian Far East, by the pronotum possessing transverse carina, a rather long subparallel rostrum not sagittate at apex, and lacking transverse eyes. This is the first record of Anthribidae from the late Cretaceous and the first coleopteran described from the Arzamazovskaya Formation in the Russian Far East. (C) 2019 Elsevier Ltd.
