https://www.mapress.com/pe <p><strong>Palaeoentomology </strong>is the official journal of the <a href="http://fossilinsects.net/">International Palaeoentomological Society</a> (IPS). It is an international peer-reviewed scientific journal, which publishes high quality, original research contributions as well as review papers. Papers are published in English and they cover a wide spectrum of topics in palaeoentomology, fossil terrestrial arthropods and amber research, i.e. systematic palaeontology, morphology, diversity, palaeogeography, palaeoecology, palaeobehavior, evolutionary and phylogenetic studies on fossil insects and terrestrial arthropods, biostratigraphy, taphonomy, and amber (deposits, inclusions, geochemistry, curation). Descriptions of new methods (analytical, instrumental or numerical) should be relevant to the broad scope of the journal.</p> <p> </p> <p>Palaeoentomology is the flag journal of IPS, who is responsible for the editing of this journal.

Dlussky. In the decade since his death, 20 posthumous articles have been published, furthering his legacy. To honour his contributions and to document his role as the </span><span style="color: #010003;">most significant figure in the history of palaeomyrmecology, </span><span style="color: #010003;">we have written an account of the field’s development, with a special focus on Dlussky’s work on fossil ants. Over the course of his scientific career, G.M. Dlussky </span><span style="color: #010003;">authored or co-authored 226 fossil ant species, representing</span><span style="color: #010003;"> nearly a third (28%) of all valid fossil species known today. We have identified four stages in the development of palaeomyrmecology, one of which we have named </span><span style="color: #010003;">“Dlussky’s Era.” Additionally, we provide a comprehensive </span><span style="color: #010003;">list of his palaeomyrmecological publications.</span></span></span></span></p> DMITRY M.
