Main Article Content
A new extinct monotypic genus of Ptinidae, Carstenium kensbargense gen. et sp. nov., is described and illustrated based on an inclusion in Baltic amber. The new taxon from a northern European Paleogene forest is compared with extant and extinct genera of the subfamily Eucradinae.
