Abstract

The fauna of the insect order Blattinopsida in the Soyana and Tikhie Gory localities (Middle Permian of Russia) is discussed. Glaphyrophlebia iva sp. nov. from Soyana is described, G. subcostalis (Martynov, 1928) from Soyana and G. rossica (Martynov, 1930), nom. ressur. from Tikhie Gory are redescribed, and G. rossica is removed from synonymy with G. subcostalis.
