Abstract

Three new fossil species of the genus Tingiometra Heiss et al., 2015 (T. pankowskii sp. nov., T. secunda sp. nov., T. yuripopovi sp. nov.) of the family Tingidae (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Tingidae: Tingiometrinae) from Cretaceous Burmese amber (northern Myanmar) are described and illustrated. Features of similarities and differences between the four known Tingiometra species are discussed and a key to species is provided.
