Permian fossil insects of Northeast Europe: new Atactophlebiidae, Ideliidae and Megakhosaridae (Grylloblattida)
S.Yu. Storozhenko
Abstract. New Permian taxa of the order Grylloblattida from North-East Europe are described: Atactophlebia sharovi sp. n. (Atactophlebiidae), Pinidelia sukatshevae gen. et sp. n. (Ideliidae) and Parakhosara magna sp. n. (Megakhosaridae). Genera Liomopterina Riek, 1973 and Miolopterina Riek, 1976 are transferred from Liomopteridae to Megakhosaridae. The position of the family Atactophlebiidae within Grylloblatiida is discussed.
