Abstract

Phaenops gutowskii sp. nov. is described, diagnosed, and illustrated based on a well-preserved specimen from Baltic amber. This new extinct jewel beetle is compared with the Phaenops aerea species group in the Palaearctic as well as closely related congeners in the Nearctic Realm. Trophic association of the new Eocene buprestid with pine trees and development of its larvae in phloem of Pinus sp. is supposed.
