Paleontological Journal Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

Quaternary and Late Tertiary fossil insects from different regions of Eurasia are studied. The main areas are northeastern Eurasia (Part 1) and Belarus and adjacent regions (Part 2). Paleoenvironmental and climatic reconstructions for these regions are provided and compared with other parts of Europe, Asia, and North America. Hundreds of fossil insect localities are described; thousands of insect sclerites are recognized.
