Abstract

Aulieezidium karatauense, a new genus and species of the extinct planthopper family Fulgoridiidae is described from the Upper Jurassic deposits of Karabastau Formation of Aulie, Karatau (Southern Kazakhstan Province, Kazakhstan). The characters of the new genus in respect to other genera placed in Fulgoridiidae are reviewed. The palaeoecological and palaeogeographical data concerning Aulieezidium gen. n. and other genera of Fulgoridiidae are also discussed.
