Description of a new fossil Anthoxyela species (Hymenoptera, Xyelidae) from Yixian Formation of Northeast China Author Gao, Taiping Author Ren, Dong text Zootaxa 2008 1842 56 62 journal article 10.5281/zenodo.183240 419b040c-acf1-4404-a7c9-96d84d191b55 1175-5326 183240 Genus Anthoxyela Rasnitsyn, 1977 Type species: Anthoxyela baissensis Rasnitsyn, 1977 Revised diagnosis: Forewing with pterostigma sclerotized basally only; vein Sc connected to R only for a very short distance beyond origin of Rs, and the posterior branch of Sc (Sc2) short, subvertical or weakly oblique; crossvein 1m-cu slightly shorter than distally adjacent abscissa of Cu; hind wing with basal section of Rs longer, the cell 1Cu broad and basal part of vein cu-a extraordinarily bend. Antenna with third segment thicker and slightly longer than following segments, more than ten flagellomeres. We no longer consider the length ratio of Rs and M of forewing to be a diagnosis character, and some characters of hind wing added. Species included: A. baissensis Rasnitsyn, 1977 , A. anthophaga Rasnitsyn, 1982 , A. turgensis Rasnitsyn, 1990 , and A. orientalis sp. nov. Based on the above discussion, the key to identify species of the genus of Anthoxyela is listed as follows:
