This species is named in honour of David Grimaldi, who has contributed so much to the revitalization of palaeoentomology, a field previously in a somewhat moribund state. His many papers and books on fossil faunas across a wide spectrum of taxa coupled with his excellent line drawings have brought a freshness to the study of insect evolution. We are pleased to contribute to this Festschrift, as one of us (D.J.B.) had promised him this paper several years ago, so this previously halffinished manuscript is now finally complete.

is known from a single damaged specimen surrounded by bubbles of apparent gaseous and liquid inclusions. Although the wings are missing and the thorax is mostly destroyed, the legs, antenna, and male postabdomen are clearly visible, making this specimen worth describing. The species has strong similarities to the

is intriguing, and tempting to describe, but we decided not to. It is missing its head and both hindlegs, and the male postabdomen is rotated and twisted 180°, such that interpretation and a clear view of the hypopygium is impossible. Curiously, the flow of resin before solidification appears to have twisted the legs, torn off both hind legs, but left the wings rather untouched. Tibia II has a strong curved seta anterior seta at ¼. Possibly more complete specimens of this species will be discovered in the future.
