摘要
The first fossil Carabidae from Burmese amber is described as new to science, Oodes kachinensis Liu n. sp., based on a single individual preserved in Cretaceous amber from Myanmar. This species is placed in the extant tribe Oodini as supported by several characters: one supraorbital seta at each side of vertex, interval 9 very narrow, stria 8 very deep, epipleuron plica presented, antennomeres 1-3 glabrous and 4-11 densely pubescent. This new species has surprising long legs, indicating most probably it was living on the bank of puddle. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
