The first Late Triassic Chinese triadophlebiomorphan (Insecta: Odonatoptera): biogeographic implications

Abstract The clade Triadophlebiomorpha represents a morphological ‘link’ between the Paleozoic griffenflies (Meganisoptera) and the modern taxa. Nevertheless they are relatively poorly known in the body structures and paleobiogeography. The Triassic dragonfly is extremely rare in China with only one...
