| : | Late Jurassic insect remains are still extremely rare in northern Germany. Up to now only five isolated wings have been re-corded from "Kimmeridgian" deposits (as used in the German lithostratigraphical terminology). Four of them are elytrae of beetles (Coleoptera): Hyperomima sp. SCHULTKA 1991 and three indeterminable specimens; the fifth specimen is a hemielytra of the water-bug (Hemiptera: Nepomorpha: Belostomatidae) Nettelstedtia breitkreutzi POPOV, RUST&BRAUCKMANN 2000. The few collecting sites are restricted to the Wiehengebirge (Hille-Oberluebbe and Nettelstedt; north-eastern North Rhine-Westphalia) as well as to the Okerregion (Langenberg quarry, northern Harz foreland, Lower Saxony). |
