Abstract

A rare ommatine beetle, Lepidomma tianae gen. et sp. nov. (Insecta: Coleoptera: Archostemata), is described in burmite from northern Myanmar (Kachin). It has unusual scale-lined elytra and belongs to the equally unusual clessidrommatin stem group apparently endemic to the West Burma Block. These beetles were possibly adapted for life on trees and shrubs.
