Abstract
The extinct family Minlagerrontidae bears unusual morphological characteristics and includes two close species within one genus from mid-Cretaceous Burmese (Myanmar) amber. Herein, a third species of Minlagerron Chen, Szwedo and Wang, 2019, Minlagerron hongi sp. nov. is characterized, described and illustrated based on a well-preserved specimen from the mid-Cretaceous Burmese amber. The new species can be distinguished from other species mainly by its wing venation characters. This discovery increases the knowledge on the palaeodiversity of this peculiar hemipteran family, and probably reflects the complexity of the region of Myanmar during the Cretaceous.
