Eocorona is an extinct genus of amphiesmenopteran from the Middle Triassic of Australia. It contains only one species, Eocorona iani, and is the type genus of the family Eocoronidae.[1]
Discovery
Eocorona iani was first described by the Australian anthropologist and entomologist Norman Tindale in 1980. The fossil was composed of a nearly complete forewing and a hindwing tentatively interpreted as belonging to the same species. It was recovered from Mount Crosby, Queensland, Australia. It dates from the Carnian age (228.0 – 216.5 million years ago) of the Middle Triassic.[2]
Taxonomy
Eocorona iani is the only species in the genus Eocorona and the family Eocoronidae. Tindale originally described Eocorona iani as a butterfly (order Lepidoptera). This has been challenged by a number of other authors.[3][4]
Most recently, Minet et al. (2010) considered Eocorona a 'true' member of the superorder Amphiesmenoptera, neither lepidopteran (butterflies and moths) nor trichopteran (caddisflies).[5]
