Abstract

During a palaeontological excavation of amber at the site named San Just, in the Utrillas-Escucha area of Teruel Province, northeastern Spain, a rich fauna from the Albian (Early Cretaceous) was discovered. Among it, three specimens of Thysanoptera were found that are here attributed to the new genus Hispanothrips n. gen. in the family Stenurothripidae Bagnall 1923. Phylogenetic analyses were conducted that support the resurrection of the family Stenurothripidae and its replacement for Adiheterothripidae Shumsher 1946.
