Second new genus of hairy fungus beetle (Coleoptera: Mycetophagidae) from Eocene Danish amber

A new hairy fungus beetle, Danophaea cimbrica gen. et sp. nov. from the tribe Mycetophagini (Mycetophaginae), is described from late Eocene Danish amber. The new genus differs from the genus Typhaea Stephens, 1829 in that it has a short, triangular mesepimeron and mesoventrite, shorter precoxal portion of the prosternum, bent posteriorly posterior edge of mesoventrite, and elongated ninth and tenth antennomeres. It also differs from the genus Aggerbille Legalov et Perkovsky, 2024, in that its body is covered by shorter setae, and its antennal club is wider. Furthermore, the shortest distance between the mesocoxal and metacoxal cavities is distinctly greater than the length of the first abdominal ventrite at the same point. It can also be distinguished from the genus Olmia Legalov et Perkovsky, 2025 by the fact that its antennae are shorter, extending beyond the middle of the pronotum; its eleventh antennomere is distinctly shorter than ninth and tenth antennomeres combined; and its body is two times larger. This is the first record of Crowsonium succinium Abdullah, 1964 in Danish amber.
