Abstract
A new dragonfly, Cretagomphaeschnaoides jarzembowskae gen. et sp. nov., is described from mid-Cretaceous Burmese amber. Cretagomphaeschnaoides gen. nov. is of a small size, has a three-celled discoidal triangle, and more undulating vein MAb than other genera in the extinct tribe Gomphaeschnaoidini of the extant family Gomphaeschnidae. This fossil is the second record of Anisoptera in Cretaceous amber.
