A New Lycid Genus from the Dominican Amber (Insecta, Coleoptera, Lycidae, Leptolycinae, Leptolycini)
A new fossil genus, Electropteron gen.n., and a new species, E. avus sp.n., are described from the Dominican Amber. Electropteron avus gen.n., sp.n., appears to be related to some of the extant Great Antillean lycids and is the first fossil taxon from the subfamily Leptolycinae.
