Abstract
ABSTRACT Sinomesuropetala daohugensis gen. nov. et sp. nov., first accurate Chinese representative of the Mesozoic family Mesuropetalidae, is described from the Haifanggou Formation near the Daohugou village in northeastern China. The exceptional preservation of the fossil allows the description of reproductive structures seldom observed in compression fossils. It confirms the high diversity of the ‘basal’ Aeshnoptera during the Middle-Late Jurassic, especially in China. This new finding confirms the widespread distribution of the Mesuropetalidae during the Jurassic.
