A fossilised insect wing discovered in an abandoned mine in Labrador has led palaeontologists from Ï㽶ÊÓƵ and the University of GdaÅ„sk to identify a new hairy cicada species that lived around 100 million years ago.
Maculaferrum blaisi, described in a study published in , is the first hemipteran insect (true bug) to be discovered at the Redmond Formation, a fossil site from the Cretaceous period near Schefferville, Labrador.
