| Abstract: | ABSTRACT. The earliest known Odonatoptera: Protozygoptera from the Upper Permian of Lodève (France) are described. Epilestes gallica sp. nov. belongs to the Permolestidae and Lodevia longialata gen. et sp. nov. to the Permepallagidae. Both of these families were previously known from the Kazanian of Russia, suggesting a similar age for the formation of Lodève. |
