Abstract

One new genus and four new species of Chrysopidae are described from the Lower Cretaceous of Khasurty, Transbailakia (Russia): Mesypochrysa cannabina sp. nov.; M. naranica sp. nov.; Aberrantochrysa buryatica gen. & sp. nov.; and A. pulchella gen. & sp. nov. The abundance of Chrysopidae in Mesozoic localities is discussed.
