03D787A2FFE2EE74FF52FC1D8EE56DA7.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Deng et al. (2019) originally placed N. cretaceum in the extant genus Nosodendron, since the species differs from the only other extant genus, Nosoglobulus, in having a larger body and relatively loosely articulated antennal club. They additionally noted that N. cretaceum differs from both of the extant subgenera in Nosodendron in the combination of several characters. Recently, we discovered several additional species related to N. cretaceum from Burmese amber. Based on the examination of the new materials, as well as the holotype of N. cretaceum, we suggest that the difference between this fossil group and extant Nosodendron is large enough to justify a new genus, which is herein designated as Archaenosodendron. In extant Nosodendron (and Nosoglobulus), the prosternum in front of coxae is extremely shortened, while in Archaenosodendron the prosternum is relatively long. More importantly, in extant Nosodendron, the lateral portions of prosternum are clearly delimited and are distinctly lower compared to the medial portion (raised mesal shelf; fig. 4 B in Nomura & Kamezawa 2014), so that when in repose the fore legs can fold compactly and the protrochanters and profemora could lay exactly on the lowered lateral portions of prosternum. In Archaenosodendron, although the lateral portions of prosternum might be somewhat lowered, there is no clear and complete boundary between the lateral and medial portions, and the protrochanters and profemora are unlikely to be able to lay compactly against the prosternum.	en	Li, Yan-Da, Tihelka, Erik, Dahan, Loïc, Huang, Di-Ying, Cai, Chen-Yang (2021): On the Nosodendridae from mid-Cretaceous amber of northern Myanmar (Coleoptera: Nosodendroidea).

03D787A2FFE3EE74FF52FDAD8FD4682B.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Extant nosodendrids exhibit a high degree of morphological uniformity. Differences between different congeners are often very minute (e. g., Háva 2019). As we show below, some Archaenosodendron species are also very similar to each other, which makes it difficult to determine the differences under a normal stereo microscope. As we did not have a chance to check the paratype of A. cretaceum (deposited in a private collection) personally, we are not sure if the holotype and the paratype represent the same species or not.	en	Li, Yan-Da, Tihelka, Erik, Dahan, Loïc, Huang, Di-Ying, Cai, Chen-Yang (2021): On the Nosodendridae from mid-Cretaceous amber of northern Myanmar (Coleoptera: Nosodendroidea).

Zootaxa 5082 (3): 223-244, DOI: https://doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5082.3.2
03D787A2FFEDEE79FF52F97F8E296FB7.taxon	discussion	Remarks. The amber piece containing the holotype of B. pengweii is somewhat nontransparent, making it difficult to determine many of the characters using normal optical methods. Partly due to tomographic artefacts, some characters were not clearly visualized in previous micro-CT reconstructions. For example, one of the key diagnostic characters for Nosodendridae, the 11 - segmented antenna with 3 - segmented club, could not be observed in Tihelka et al. (2021 a), although other diagnostic characters could be confirmed. Here we reexamine the original CT data for the holotype of B. pengweii. It turns out that the majority of the beetle body has high absorption (white), while the antennae (especially the left one) appear to have lower absorption (black) (Fig. 16 A). Therefore, the antennae were not properly reconstructed in the simple reconstruction, where only regions with a density higher than a selected threshold were extracted. Confocal microscopy confirms the 3 - segmented club of B. pengweii (Fig. 16 C). Since the strong laser could penetrate the somewhat opaque amber matrix better, and out-of-focus light is blocked, the confocal microscope could image this material much better than widefield ones (Fu et al. 2021). The medial antennomeres of B. pengweii appears to be relative elongate (Fig. 16 B), while in extant Nosodendron the medial antennomeres are almost as long as wide. Confocal microscopy additionally reveals that the prosternal process (Fig. 16 E) is not as slender as shown in the CT reconstruction by Tihelka et al. (2021 a), which was subsequently adopted as one of the characters differentiating Basinosa from Mesonosa (Tihelka et al. 2020 b). Detecting the boundaries of structures under CT is a challenging task (Coleman & Colbert 2007); the boundaries between the beetle and the amber matrix are not clearly defined, but are instead represented by a continuum of transitional values. Thus, a different selection of the threshold value for extraction could sometimes greatly affect the visual appearance. The 3 - segmented antennal club, together with the previously shown subantennal groove, wide metaventrite, clearly delimited anterolateral depression of metaventrite for the reception of mesotibial apex and basal mesotarsomeres, and narrowly separated metacoxae (all present in extant Nosodendridae and fossil Nosodendridae from the Burmese amber; fig. 23 C in Ge et al. 2007), further confirm the placement of Basinosa in Nosodendridae. Basinosa is unique in Nosodendridae in having a relatively large body and complete antennal grooves on prosternum.	en	Li, Yan-Da, Tihelka, Erik, Dahan, Loïc, Huang, Di-Ying, Cai, Chen-Yang (2021): On the Nosodendridae from mid-Cretaceous amber of northern Myanmar (Coleoptera: Nosodendroidea).

03D787A2FFEFEE67FF52F9578E086DBF.taxon	materials_examined	Material examined. Holotype of M. scandens, NIGP 173928. Remarks. The maxillary and labial palpi of the holotype of M. scandens appears to be enlarged in both the widefield photos and the micro-CT reconstruction by Tihelka et al. (2021 b). As noted by Tihelka et al. (2021 b), this enlargement is merely an artefact. In the confocal photomicrographs it is clear that the maxillary and labial palpi M. scandens are slender (Fig. 18 B). The apparent enlargement is caused by gas bubbles enclosing the palpi. The holotype of M. scandens was cited as sex indeterminate in Tihelka et al. (2021 b). Our reexamination of the CT data reveals the genitalia inside the body of M. scandens, which are likely to be female (Fig. 19). Mesonosa is unique within Nosodendridae in having ventrally lobed tarsomeres 2 – 4 (Fig. 18 G – I; Tihelka et al., 2021 b). Mesonosa additionally differs from other fossil nosodendrids in having a prosternum without antennal grooves (figs 2 D, 4 C in Tihelka et al., 2021 b) and antennomeres in the club very loosely connected (Fig. 18 C).	en	Li, Yan-Da, Tihelka, Erik, Dahan, Loïc, Huang, Di-Ying, Cai, Chen-Yang (2021): On the Nosodendridae from mid-Cretaceous amber of northern Myanmar (Coleoptera: Nosodendroidea).
