THE FAUNA OF GRYLLOBLATTID INSECTS (GRYLLOBLATTIDA) FROM THE END OF THE LATE PERMIAN TO THE FIRST HALF OF THE TRIASSIC

Abstract

The grylloblattid fauna that existed from the Late Permian to the first half of the Triassic is reviewed. Two new species of the family Geinitziidae, Stegopterum anteanatalis sp. nov. (Lek-Vorkuta Forma- tion, Pechora Basin) and Shurabia annosa sp. nov. (Mal'tseva Formation, Kuznetsk Basin), are described. Ste- gopterum hirtum Shar., Megakhosara fasciipennis Mart., and Syndesmorpha composita Mart. are redescribed. The family Stegopteridae becomes a subfamily of the family Geinitziidae. Alicula asiatica is transferred to the genus Metidelia of the family Ideliidae.
