摘要: ABSTR C The palaeodiversity of Neuropterida was extraordinarily rich during the Cretaceous in northern Myanmar. Owing to the sharply increased studies on the Myanmar amber Neuropterida, a total of 109 genera and 137 species in 23 families of three orders have been recorded. Here we provide a review of the present knowledge on the systematics, phylogeny, and palaeoecology of Neuropterida from the midCretaceous (lowermost Cenomanian) of Myanmar. Cretadilarinae Makarkin, 2017 is here moved to Sisyridae, being closely related to the extinct sisyrid subfamily Paradoxosisyrinae Makarkin, 2016. A checklist and a faunal analysis on Neuropterida recorded from world amber deposits are provided. The Myanmar amber Neuropterida highlights the Cretaceous diversity of this order and provides significant fossil evidence to infer the evolutionary history of this archaic and charismatic insect group.
