Baetinae
Baetidae is a family of mayfly, mayflies with about 1000 described species in 110 genera distributed worldwide. These are among the smallest of mayflies, adults rarely exceeding 10 mm in length excluding the two long slender tails and sometimes much smaller, and members of the family are often referred to as small mayflies or small minnow mayflies. Most species have long oval forewings with very few cross veins (see Comstock-Needham system) but the hindwings are usually very small or even absent. The males often have very large insect eye, eyes, shaped like turrets above the head (this is known as "turbinate condition"). Baetids breed in a wide range of waters from lakes and streams to ditches and even rain barrel, water butts. The nymph (biology), nymphs are strong swimmers and feed mainly on algae. Taxonomy The majority of living genera (approximately 95) are placed in the subfamily Baetinae , [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Burmese Amber
Burmese amber, also known as Burmite or Kachin amber, is amber from the Hukawng Valley in northern Myanmar. The amber is dated to around 100 million years ago, during the latest Albian to earliest Cenomanian ages of the mid-Cretaceous period. The amber is of significant palaeontological interest due to the diversity of flora and fauna contained as inclusions, particularly arthropods including insects and arachnids but also birds, lizards, snakes, frogs and fragmentary dinosaur remains. The amber has been known and commercially exploited since the first century AD, and has been known to science since the mid-nineteenth century. Research on the deposit has attracted controversy due to the potential role of the amber trade in funding internal conflict in Myanmar and hazardous working conditions in the mines where it is collected. Geological context, depositional environment and age The amber is found in the Hukawng Basin, a large Cretaceous-Cenozoic sedimentary basin within north ...

Type Genus
In biological taxonomy, the type genus (''genus typica'') is the genus which defines a biological family and the root of the family name. Zoological nomenclature According to the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature, "The name-bearing type of a nominal family-group taxon is a nominal genus called the 'type genus'; the family-group name is based upon that of the type genus." Any family-group name must have a type genus (and any genus-group name must have a type species, but any species-group name may, but need not, have one or more type specimens). The type genus for a family-group name is also the genus that provided the stem to which was added the ending -idae (for families). :Example: The family name Formicidae has as its type genus the genus ''Formica'' Linnaeus, 1758. Botanical nomenclature In botanical nomenclature, the phrase "type genus" is used, unofficially, as a term of convenience. In the '' ICN'' this phrase has no status. The code uses type specimens ...

Alainites
''Alainites'' is a genus of Palaearctic and Oriental mayflies in the family Baetidae, erected by R.D. Waltz ''et al.'' in 1994. About eight species are predominantly European, with ''A. muticus'' previously considered a species group of the genus ''Baetis'' (which was subsequently recognised as polyphyletic).Yanai1 Z, Sroka P, Gattolliat J-L (2022) Two new species of ''Alainites'' (Ephemeroptera, Baetidae) from the Mediterranean biodiversity hotspot ''ZooKeys'' 1118: 73–95. The latter is sometimes called the "iron blue", although this name is used by anglers to include at least two species in the related genus '' Nigrobaetis'' and has a widespread distribution, including the British Isles.
