Biology:Neoculicites
From HandWiki
Neoculicites is a genus of extinct mosquitoes.[1][2][3] The fossil specimens are N. arverensis and N. depereti from France, and N. ceyx from Germany, all of which are from the Oligocene.[1][3] The quality of the specimens was extremely poor, being described as "worthless, barely preserved remnants which were recognised as mosquitoes".[4]
