摘要

A new species of the family Nitidulidae, Plesiogethes mali sp.n., belonging to the extinct genus Plesiogethes gen. n., is described from larva from Zhitomir Region, Ukraine (Rovno amber). It is the first formally described beetle larva and first nitidulid from Rovno amber. Comparative analysis with a number of recent representatives of the family is provided. Based on the unique combination of characters, occurring in various extant subfamilies, it is proposed to place Plesiogethes gen. n. in Nitidulidae incertae sedis with possible relations to Cybocephalinae.
