- Arcofuzia cana sp. nov. (Figs. 1–4) Type specimens: Holotype male (Figs. 1, 2), CNU-BLA-NN- 2011058, terminalia with forceps-like grasping cerci, a well-preserved specimen; paratype, likely male based on elongated abdominal shape, CNU-BLA-NN- 2011012 pc (part and counterpart), a relatively well-preserved complete specimen (terminalia not preserved). Description: Large-sized, with body length 20.2 mm (excluding head), width of abdomen 4.9 mm. Head small with eyes projected beyond the head outline, inverted-triangular shape (length × width= 3.1 mm × 2.7 mm), extending beyond the pronotum slightly, antennal sockets conspicuous at sides, mouthparts distinct but unclearly preserved; pronotum length 4.1 mm, width 5.2 mm, elliptical, as wide as the body; abdomen with 7 segments preserved, thick in the middle of segments, narrowing posteriorly; terminalia with forceps-like grasping cerci (Fig. 1 B). Right forewing of holotype (Figs. 1, 2) length 14.9 mm, width 5.8 mm, conchostracan color spot present (Fig. 1 A); left forewing length 15.4 mm, width 5.3 mm; with small crossvein-like reticulations, wing venation rich, with 51 to 54 veins at margin (Fig. 2); intercalary veins thick, distinct all over wing surface; cambered markings located near the apex of forewings, from anterior of R to the anterior of CuA, forming a crescent (Fig. 1 A); costal area very long (about 0.4 of wing’s length); Sc thick, without branches, curved upward and longer than clavus; R slightly curved and with 22 branches (Rs undifferentiated), reaching the wing apex with many veinlets branched; M branched basally and reaching the wing apex, with 6 to 9 branches; CuA gently curved, expanded with 13 or 14 branches, with some branches ending near wing apex; CuP strongly curved and simple; clavus short, less than a third of the wing’s length; A without branches, arc bending and with 7 or 8 veins; a diagonal kink present in anal field. Length of hind wings 13.9 –14.9 mm; without pterostigma; with about 25 veins of remigium; Sc simple; R terminating to wing apex, differentiated into R 1 with 3 branches and Rs with 10 to 12 branches; M almost straight to wing margin. Length of front femora 2.3 mm, width of front femora 0.5 mm; length of middle femora 3.1 mm and tibiae 3.7 mm, width of middle femora 0.8 mm and tibiae 0.4 mm; length of hind femora 4.1 mm and tibiae 4.6 mm, width of hind femora 1.0 mm and tibiae 0.4 mm; legs gradually longer from the fore to the hind legs; hind leg with 5 spines preserved on the tibiae, length of spines 0.5–0.9 mm. Paratype (Figs. 3, 4) a relatively well-preserved complete specimen except terminalia not preserved. Large-sized, with body length 18.3 mm as preserved (excluding head), width of abdomen 4.8 mm. Head small, inverted-triangular shape (length × width= 2.6 mm × 2.3 mm), extending beyond the pronotum slightly, antennal sockets conspicuous at sides, mouthparts distinct but unclearly preserved; pronotum length 4.5 mm, width 5.7 mm; abdomen with 8 segments preserved, thick in the middle of segments, narrowing posteriorly. Right forewing length (Figs. 3, 4) 14.9 mm, width 5.2 mm; left forewing distorted during the fossilization process (length × width= 12.9 mm preserved × 6.0 mm preserved); with small crossvein-like reticulations (Fig. 3 B), wing venation rich, with 39 + (left forewing) to 43 (right forewing) veins at margin; Sc thick, without branches, curved upward and longer than clavus; R slightly curved and with 16 + to 20 branches (Rs undifferentiated); M branched with 6 or 7 branches; CuA gently curved, expanded with 9 branches, with some branches ending near wing apex; A sometimes with branch (Fig. 3 C), arc bending and with 5–6 veins. Length of front femora 1.8 mm and tibiae 1.9 mm, width of front femora 0.6 mm and tibiae 0.4 mm; length of middle femora 2.9 mm and tibiae 3.1 mm, width of middle femora 0.9 mm and tibiae 0.4 mm; length of hind tibiae 5.2 mm, width of hind tibiae 0.5 mm; legs gradually longer from the fore to the hind legs; hind leg with 6 spines preserved on the tibiae, length of spines 0.4–0.9 mm. Etymology: The name cana is after the Latin word canus meaning colour of gray, referring to the colour of markings on the wings. Type locality: Daohugou Village, Wuhua Township, Ningcheng County, Inner Mongolia, China. Type horizon: Jiulongshan Formation, Middle Jurassic.
