Abstract: | A new genus of palaeomacromiid dragonflies, Curviarculia , based on Curviarculia delicata sp. nov. and Curviarculia lamasi sp. nov., is erected from the upper Paleocene Maíz Gordo Formation of north–western Argentina. Phylogenetic relationships within Palaeomacromiidae are discussed, leading to a new family diagnosis. |
