Generalist Pollen-Feeding Beetles during the Mid-Cretaceous.
The Cretaceous fossil record of amber provides a variety of evidence that is essential for
greater understanding of early pollination strategies. Here, we describe four pieces of ca. 99 …

Angiosperm pollinivory in a Cretaceous beetle
Despite the crucial importance of flower-visiting insects in modern ecosystems, there is little
fossil evidence on the origins of angiosperm pollination. Most reports of pollination in the …

Direct evidence for eudicot pollen-feeding in a Cretaceous stinging wasp (Angiospermae; Hymenoptera, Aculeata) preserved in Burmese amber
Angiosperms and their insect pollinators form a foundational symbiosis, evidence for which
from the Cretaceous is mostly indirect, based on fossils of insect taxa that today are …

Improving the taxonomy of fossil pollen using convolutional neural networks and superresolution microscopy
Taxonomic resolution is a major challenge in palynology, largely limiting the ecological and
evolutionary interpretations possible with deep-time fossil pollen data. We present an …
