Family Asiocoleidae Rohdendorf, 1961

The elytron of the described specimen belongs to the Asiocoleidae due to the presence of the main veins ( Fig. 2d) and a net of intercalary veinlets between them, forming polygonal cells. It differs from other Archostemata sensu lato in the cells structure that is not organized in 2–3 parallel rows, but forms an irregular pattern.
