A new species of Foveopsis Shcherbakov (Hemiptera: Fulgoromorpha: Fulgoroidea: Perforissidae) from mid-Cretaceous Burmese amber

A new species, Foveopsis heteroidea sp. nov. is described from the mid-Cretaceous Burmese amber based on four well-preserved specimens. The abundance and distribution of sensory pits in adult Perforissidae may not be considered as classification character. Well-preserved wing-coupling apparatus and nodal line indicate Perforissidae should have a moderately versatile flight capability, and with the help of atmospheric flow, Perforissidae had a broad geographical distribution in Cretaceous. Sexual difference of new species is briefly discussed, indicates it in planthopper has already existed in the Cretaceous.
