New dustywings (Insecta: Neuroptera: Coniopterygidae) from the Miocene Zhangpu amber

We describe the first two dustywing species (Neuroptera: Coniopterygidae) from the Miocene Zhangpu amber. One of them is con-firmed to be a new species of the genus Heteroconis Enderlein, 1905 (Aleuropteryginae), namely Heteroconis zhangpuensis n. sp., while the other belongs to the genus Coniopteryx Curtis, 1834 (Coniopteryginae) but could not be identified to species. The new Heteroconis species resembles some extant congeners from China and Thailand. These East Asian Miocene dustywings provide valuable palaeontological evidence for understanding the evolution of Coniopterygidae as well as the history of the diversification of the Asian lacewings.(c) 2022 Elsevier B.V. and Nanjing Institute of Geology and Palaeontology, CAS.
