Laccosmylus, a lacewing from the Jurassic of China

[Halichoeres]

These fossils are so cool because you can see the venation pattern and even how they were spotted/pigmented in life.

Here's Laccosmylus calophlebius, named in 2003


And the new species Laccosmylus cicatricatus (the second name means "scarred over" in reference to the markings)


Best of all, the paper is open access: https://zookeys.pensoft.net/articles.php?id=28286

That's a beautiful fossil. It's amazing how all the venation and everything is so well preserved.

Well, looks like after a few months of Burmese amber specimens, Chinese deposits have finally gotten the spotlight again. Anyway, nicely patterened and venated wings, and amazing preservation
