【 摘 要 】

Five new genera and eight new species of handsome fungus beetles of the superfamily Coccinelloidea are described and imaged from Baltic and Bitterfeld amber: Gramboale prutenorum gen. et sp. nov., Kleinzaches germanicianus gen. et sp. nov.,Palaecoryphus viktori gen. et sp. nov., Giltine ampeensis gen. et sp. nov., Symbiotes borussiaeorientalis sp. nov. (Anamorphidae), Laima andreei gen. et sp. nov. (Endomychidae: Endomychinae), Trochoideus koenigsbergicus sp. nov., and T. resinatissimus sp. nov. (Endomychidae: Pleganophorinae). Additional specimens of Glesirhanis bercioi Shockley and Alekseev and Phymaphoroides antennatus Motschulsky (Endomychidae: Leiestinae), from Baltic amber are also reported. A key to the known handsome fungus beetles genera with formally described species from Eocene ambers is provided.
