Abstract
Eomatsucoccus andrewi sp. nov. (Hemiptera: Sternorrhyncha: Coccinea: Matsucoccida) has been established on the basis of a wing impression from the Lower Weald Clay (Hauterivian, Lower Cretaceous) at Keymer Tileworks, West Sussex, southern England. It differs from the other two Lower Cretaceous species, E. sukachevae Koteja and E. popovi Koteja, in wing size (c. 3.3mm long) and shape (gradually tapering towards apex). The taxonomy and palaeontology of the matsucoccids are discussed.
