Taldycupedidae
Taldycupedidae is an extinct family of beetles primarily known from the Permian period. Taxonomy Kirejtshuk (2020) included the following genera in Taldycupedidae, preliminarily treating it as a subfamily Taldycupedinae of the family Permocupedidae. * '' Afrotaldycupes'' Beaufort Group, South Africa, Late Permian (Changhsingian) ** '' Afrotaldycupes africanus'' (Type species) ** '' Afrotaldycupes lidgettoniensis'' * '' Mesothoris'' Blackstone Formation, Australia Late Triassic (Norian) ** '' Mesothoris clathrata'' (Type species) ** '' Mesothoris grandis'' ** '' Mesothoris punctomarginum'' * '' Proterocupes'' (syn ''Lobanovia'' ) ** '' Proterocupes major'' Vokhma Formation, Vologda, Russia, Late Permian (Changhsingian) ** '' Proterocupes nedubrovensis'' Vokhma Formation, Vologda, Russia, Late Permian (Changhsingian) ** '' Proterocupes permiana'' (Type species) Poldarsa Formation, Vologda, Russia, Late Permian (Wuchiapingian) * '' Simmondsia'' Blackstone Formation, Aust ...

Permocupedidae
Permocupedidae is a family of Protocoleopteran stem group beetles. They first appeared during the Early Permian, and were one of the dominant groups of beetles during the Middle Permian. They became rare in the Late Permian, with only one species known from the Triassic, '' Frankencupes ultimus'' from the Middle Triassic (Anisian) Röt Formation of Germany. They are thought to have been xylophagous (wood eating), which is presumed to be the ancestral ecology of beetles. Taxonomy Kirejtshuk (2020) included the following genera in an expanded (''sensu lato'') family, with the traditional (''sensu stricto'') Permocupedidae and related Taldycupedidae as subfamilies Permocupedinae and Taldycupedinae respectively. However, other studies have recovered Talycupedidae as more closely related to crown-group beetles than to Permocupedidae. *'' Afrocupes'' South Africa: Western Cape (Kenmoore Farm), Whitehill Formation, Permian, Cisuralian, Sakmarian/Artinskian, −290.1–279.5 Ma. * ...

Boris Rohdendorf
Boris Borisovich Rohdendorf (russian: link=no, Борис Борисович Родендорф, 12 July 190421 November 1977) was a Soviet entomologist and curator at the Zoological Museum at the University of Moscow. He attained the position of head of the Laboratory of Arthropods, Paleontological Institute of Russian Academy of Sciences, Academy of Sciences of the USSR (now Russian Academy of Sciences) in Moscow. A student of Andrey Martynov, he was a prolific taxonomist who described numerous new taxa, including fossil Diptera Flies are insects of the order Diptera, the name being derived from the Greek δι- ''di-'' "two", and πτερόν ''pteron'' "wing". Insects of this order use only a single pair of wings to fly, the hindwings having evolved into advanced ..., and published important syntheses on fossil insects. His work is being extensively revised by the current generation of Russian paleoentomologists. Partial bibliography * Rohdendorf, B.B. 1937. iptera ...
