Ginkgo Dissecta
''Ginkgo dissecta'' is an extinct ginkgo species in the family Ginkgoaceae described from a series of isolated fossil leaf, leaves. The species is known from Eocene, Early Eocene sediments exposed in the province of British Columbia, Canada, and Washington (U.S. state), Washington, USA. It is one of two ''Ginkgo'' species found at the Washington and British Columbia sites. History and classification ''Ginkgo dissecta'' is represented by a group of fossil specimens from four different geologic formations. The type locality (biology), type locality for the species is at the Ypresian McAbee Fossil Beds, near Cache Creek, British Columbia, in the Tranquille Formation belonging to the Kamloops Group. ''G. dissecta'' is also known from the similarly aged sites of the Klondike Mountain Formation, which crop out around the town of Republic, Washington, Republic, Ferry County, Washington. At least one specimen has been recovered from the fossil sites around the town of Princeton, Brit ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Inocelliidae is a small family of snakeflies containing 8 genera of which one is known only from fossils. They are commonly known as inocelliid snakeflies. The largest known species is ''Fibla carpenteri'' known from fossils found in baltic amber The Baltic region is home to the largest known deposit of amber, called Baltic amber or succinite.

Dolichoderus Nanus FANTWEB00011 Profile Left
''Dolichoderus'' is a genus of ants found worldwide. Taxonomy The ants of the Neotropical genus ''Monacis'' were revised in 1959 by Kempf. However, Brown in 1973 and G. C. Wheeler and J. Wheeler in 1973 and 1976 considered both ''Monacis'' and ''Hypoclinea'' to be junior synonyms of ''Dolichoderus''. Description The type species is ''Dolichoderus attelaboides''. Worker ants in this genus have a body length that is typically about four millimetres and can be recognised by their thick, inflexible and strongly sculptured integument. There is a flange on the underside of the head near the base of the mandibles which is saw-like in some species. The longitudinal suture in the central plate of the metathorax is deeply impressed. The propodeum or first abdominal segment has the posterior face distinctly concave when viewed from the side. [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
