Abstract

The second species of the ripidiine genus Ripidinelia Batelka & Prokop, R. daiboyui Li & Cai sp. nov., is reported from mid-Cretaceous Kachin amber of northern Myanmar. Ripidinelia daiboyui is distinguishable from R. burmiticola Batelka & Prokop by having 5-5-4 tarsi. The apically dentate pretarsal claws found in R. daiboyui are rarely present in Ripidiinae. Together with previous studies, our discovery emphasizes the palaeodiversity of Ripiphoridae during the late Mesozoic.
