The first Malcidae (Hemiptera, Heteroptera) from the earliest Eocene Oise amber.

Eochauliops longicornisgen. et sp. n., first fossil Malcidae, is described from the lowermost Eocene amber of Oise (France). Together with the previous discovery of a Blissidae in the same amber, it suggests that the Lygaeoidea were already rather diverse during the Palaeocene, even if the Mesozoic record of this superfamily remains uncertain and scarce.
