Charles Owen Waterhouse
Charles Owen Waterhouse (19 June 18434 February 1917) was an English entomologist who specialised in Coleoptera. He was the eldest son of George Robert Waterhouse. Waterhouse was an Assistant Keeper at the Natural History Museum, London, British Museum (Natural History), London. He wrote the Buprestidae part of Frederick DuCane Godman and Osbert Salvin's ''Biologia Centrali-Americana'' (1889) and very many papers on the worldwide beetle collections of the museum, describing hundreds of new species. He was President of the Royal Entomological Society from 1907 until 1908, and was appointed ISO in the 1910 Birthday Honours. Waterhouse died in February 1917 at the age of 73.

Notocupes
''Notocupes'' is an extinct genus of medium-sized archostematan beetles from the Mesozoic Era of Eurasia, including over 50 described species. Historically, the genus was classified as a member of the family Ommatidae, but the presence of characters such as the horizontal mandibular cutting edge, separated procoxae and overlapping abdominal sternites indicate that the genus may have a closer affinity with the family Cupedidae. ''Notocupes'' is considered to be a junior synonym of '' Zygadenia'' by Kirejtshuk (2020), but other researchers suggest to reserve the genus ''Zygadenia'' as a form taxon for isolated elytra that probably belong to the genus ''Notocupes'', while retaining ''Notocupes'' as a valid genus for complete body fossils. Most species of ''Notocupes'' were described from compression fossils. An additional three species were described from Cenomanian-aged Burmese amber, which were treated as a separate genus, '' Echinocups'', by Kirejtshuk (2020), but Li ''et al.'' (2 ...

Omma
''Omma'' is a genus of beetles in the family Ommatidae. ''Omma'' is an example of a living fossil. The oldest species known, ''O. liassicum'', lived during the final stage of the Triassic (Rhaetian), over 200 million years ago, though the placement of this species in ''Omma'' has been questioned. Numerous other fossil species are known from the Jurassic and Cretaceous of Europe and Asia. The only living species is '' Omma stanleyi'', which is endemic to Australia. Three other extant species endemic to Australia that were formerly part of this genus were moved to the separate genus '' Beutelius'' in 2020''.'' ''Omma stanleyi'' is strongly associated with wood, being found under ''Eucalyptus'' bark and exhibiting thanatosis when disturbed. Its larval stage and many other life details are unknown due to its rarity. Males are typically 14–20 mm in length, while females are 14.4-27.5 mm. ''Omma stanleyi'' occurs throughout eastern Australia from Victoria to Central Queensland ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

La Huérguina Formation
The La Huérguina Formation (also known as the Calizas de La Huérguina Formation, La Huérguina Limestone Formation or as the Una Formation) is a geological Formation (geology), formation in Spain whose strata date back to the Barremian stage of the Early Cretaceous.Martínez et al., 2017 Las Hoyas is a Konservat-Lagerstätte within the formation, located near the city of Cuenca, Spain. The site is mostly known for its exquisitely preserved dinosaurs, especially enantiornithes, enantiornithines.Weishampel et al., 2004, pp.556-563 The lithology of the formation mostly consists of Lacustrine deposits, lacustrine limestone deposited in a freshwater wetland environment. Las Hoyas Taphonomy As a Lagerstätte#Important Konservat-Lagerstätten, Konservat-Lagerstätten, the preservation is exceptional. This may be a result of three factors: Microbial mats, Obruption and Stagnation. Microbial mats may be responsible for the preservation of soft tissue in many fossils from Las Hoyas, ...

Barremian
The Barremian is an age in the geologic timescale (or a chronostratigraphic stage) between 125.77 Ma (million years ago) and 121.4 ± 1.0 Ma (Historically, this stage was placed at 129.4 million to approximately 125 million years ago) It is a subdivision of the Early Cretaceous Epoch (or Lower Cretaceous Series). It is preceded by the Hauterivian and followed by the Aptian Stage.See Gradstein ''et al.'' (2004) or the online geowhen database (link below) Stratigraphic definitions The original type locality for the Barremian Stage is in the vicinity of the village of Barrême, Alpes-de-Haute-Provence, France. Henri Coquand defined the stage and named it in 1873. The base of the Barremian is determined by the first appearance of the ammonites '' Spitidiscus hugii'' and ''Spitidiscus vandeckii''. The end of the Barremian is determined by the geomagnetic reversal at the start of the M0r chronozone, which is biologically near the first appearance of the ammonite '' Paradesh ...

La Pedrera De Rúbies Formation
The La Pedrera de Rúbies Formation, also called as La Pedrera de Meià is an Early Cretaceous ( late Berriasian to early Barremian geologic formation in Catalonia, Spain. The formation crops out in the area of the Montsec in the Organyà Basin. At the La Pedrera de Meià locality, the formation consists of rhythmically laminated, lithographic limestones that formed in the distal areas of a large, shallow coastal lake. It is noted for the exceptional preservation of articulated small vertebrates and insects, similar to that of the Solnhofen Limestone. Fossil content The La Pedrera de Rúbies Formation has yielded the enantiornithine bird '' Noguerornis'' and the scincogekkomorph lizard '' Pedrerasaurus'',Weishampel et al., 2004, pp. 517-607 and two species of Teiid lizard ''Meyasaurus'', ''M. fauri'' and ''M. crusafonti,'' the indeterminate avialan '' Ilerdopteryx'',Kellner, 2002 frogs '' Neusibatrachus wilferti'',Báez & Sanchiz, 2007, p.477 '' Eodiscoglossus santonjae'' a ...

Aalenian
The Aalenian () is a subdivision of the Middle Jurassic Epoch/Series of the geologic timescale that extends from about 174.7 ±0.8 Ma to about 170.9 ±0.8 Ma (million years ago). It was preceded by the Toarcian and succeeded by the Bajocian. Stratigraphic definitions The Aalenian takes its name from the town of Aalen, some 70 km east of Stuttgart in Germany. The town lies at the northeastern end of the Swabian Jura. The name Aalenian was introduced in scientific literature by Swiss geologist Karl Mayer-Eymar in 1864. The base of the Aalenian is defined as the place in the stratigraphic column where the ammonite genus '' Leioceras'' first appears. The global reference profile (GSSP) is located 500 meters north of the village of Fuentelsaz in the Spanish province of Guadalajara.Cresta ''et al.'' (2001) The top of the Aalenian (the base of the Bajocian) is at the first appearance of ammonite genus '' Hyperlioceras''. In the Tethys domain, the Aalenian contains four ammonit ...
