Article Description

An elytra of a beetle was discovered from sediments of the Mandla Lobe Deccan Intertrappean beds of Umariya in Madhya Pradesh, India dating from the latest Maastrichtian (Late Cretaceous) to earliest Danian (early Paleocene). The elytra was examined with light microscopy and micro-CT and revealed a close resemblance to that of the Curculionoidea. This is the third record of a weevil found in Late Cretaceous sediments in India but represents a different taxon.
