The Crato Formation (Araripe Basin, Northeastern Brazil) is considered one of the most important Lower Cretaceous Konservat-Lagerstätten in the world, internationally known by the exceptional level of preservation of its fossils. In the paleontological record of the Crato Formation, the insects stand out in diversity and richness. Different stages such as larvae, nymphs and adults of a wi…

Stick insects comprise a diverse order of large insects that are highly adapted to camouflage. While attention to this group has increased in recent years, there are still numerous gaps in knowledge concerning the taxonomy, biology, morphology, and phylogenetic relationships of stick insects. Notably, the male genitalia, which are widely used in the taxonomy of various insect groups, rema…
The fossiliferous limestones of the Crato Formation (Lower Cretaceous, Araripe Basin) preserve one of the most diverse records on the planet of the Mesozoic biota of Gondwana. With well-preserved fossils found in abundance, the study of the Crato paleoentomofauna is of great importance for understanding the evolution and diversity of Cretaceous insects. The Neuroptera are the group of ins…
Tipulomorpha is a diverse group of Diptera, but knowledge on its phylogeny is still much reduced. One of the difficulties of studying the phylogenetic patters of the group is that it is not possible to separate the problems of the phylogeny at family and subfamily levels, given that most of the subfamilies of the family Limoniidae are not monophylectic. The subfamily Chioneinae (the secon…
This research proposal outlines a project to investigate the systematics of Cretaceous Myrmeleontidae by integrating paleofaunal data from the Crato Formation (Brazil) and Burmese amber (Myanmar). These deposits represent over 75% of known extinct Myrmeleontidae species and are crucial for understanding the early evolution of this family. The project involves examining described and undes…
