摘要
Four new genera along with four new species belonging to three subfamilies of the family Endomychidae (Coleoptera: Coccinelloidea) are described, diagnosed and imaged from Upper Cretaceous Burmese amber: Burmalestes albertalleni Tomaszewska and Slipinski gen. et sp. nov., Cretolestes niger Tomaszewska, Slipinski and Ren gen. et sp. nov. (Leiestinae), Cretaparamecus tarsalis Tomaszewska, Bai and Zhang gen. et sp. nov. (Merophysiinae), and Palaeomycetes foveolatus Tomaszewska, Slipinski and Ren gen. et sp. nov. (Xenomycetinae). They represent the oldest discovered definitive fossil members of the Endomychidae and the first records of the superfamily Coccinelloidea from the Burmese amber. Zemyna Tomaszewska nom. nov. is proposed as a replacement name for the recently described Laima Alekseev and Tomaszewska, 2018 (Endomychidae: Endomychinae) from the Eocene Baltic amber; Laima is the name already used in a fossil Brachiopoda (Gravitis, 1981).
