1254D9401F610F71F975F9296E5FF79A.taxon	discussion	Remarks. As shown for example by Brauckmann et al. (1996), Bechly et al. (2001) and Petrulevičius & Gutiérrez (2016), basal Odonatoptera are among the most ancient Pterygota, documented from late Mississippian (Lower Carboniferous, Serpukhovian) and early Pennsylvanian (Namurian B) strata in Argentina and Central Europe.	en	Zessin, Wolfgang, Brauckmann, Carsten, Gröning, Elke (2021): A new insect (probably basal Odonatoptera) from the Pennsylvanian (Late Carboniferous) of the Piesberg Fossil-Lagerstätte, Osnabrück, Germany.
