摘要
Two new species of the genus Demimaea from the subfamily Curculioninae are described from Rovno amber. Demimaea zherichini n. sp. is similar to the extant Demimaea mori but differs by its black antennae and tarsi, larger body, body lacking dense, white setae, sparsely not coarsely punctate pronotum and its narrower elytral interstriae. Demimaea gratshevi n. sp. differs from D. zherichini n. sp. by its smaller body, itscomparatively longer scape extending towards the compound eye and its convex and wide elytral interstriae. This is the first fossil record of the subtribe Demimaeina. Assumptions are made about the presence of Moraceae plant species in the Eocene of Northern and Eastern Europe, particularly the genus Ficus.
