The dominant form was assigned to the species \u201cPoljanka hirsuta Yang, Yao &amp; Ren, 2012\u201d, first described from the Daohugou beds (Haifanggou Formation, Inner Mongolia, North China). Furthermore, the species is herein transferred from the genus Poljanka Klimaszewski, 1995 to Cicadellopsis Martynov, 1937 and renamed Cicadellopsis hirsuta (Yang, Yao &amp; Ren, 2012) comb. nov. based on the presence of a forked vein RA in the forewings, as evidenced by the newly discovered specimens. A second protopsyllidiid species, Poljanka jiyuanensis\u00a0sp. nov., is also described and illustrated, showcasing the diversity of Protopsyllidioidea in the Mesozoic Chinese deposits. Abundant specimens of Cicadellopsis hirsutacomb. nov. have been discovered in both the Yangshuzhuang Formation at Jiyuan, Henan Province, and the Haifanggou Formation at Ningcheng, Inner Mongolia, further supporting their biostratigraphic correlation. This also indicates that the early assemblage of the Yanliao biota, represented by the Daohugou biota, was distributed at least as far south as Central China.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/insects17080824","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,10]],"date-time":"2026-08-10T10:23:50Z","timestamp":1786357430000},"page":"824","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Protopsyllidiidae from the Jiyuan Basin (Henan, China): Taxonomic Updates and Their Biostratigraphic Implications"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"17","author":[{"given":"Marina","family":"Hakim","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Palaeobiology and Stratigraphy, Nanjing Institute of Geology and Palaeontology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Nanjing 210008, China"},{"name":"Department of Life and Earth Sciences, Faculty of Sciences II, Campus Pierre Gemayel, Lebanese University, Fanar, El-Matn 90656, Lebanon"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Minmin","family":"Xu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Palaeobiology and Stratigraphy, Nanjing Institute of Geology and Palaeontology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Nanjing 210008, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Diying","family":"Huang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Palaeobiology and Stratigraphy, Nanjing Institute of Geology and Palaeontology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Nanjing 210008, China"},{"name":"Nanjing College, University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Nanjing 211135, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,8]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"241","DOI":"10.1016\/j.palwor.2017.01.002","article-title":"Vertebrate assemblages of the Jurassic Yanliao Biota and the Early Cretaceous Jehol Biota: Comparisons and implications","volume":"26","author":"Zhou","year":"2017","journal-title":"Palaeoworld"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"521","DOI":"10.1093\/nsr\/nwu070","article-title":"Mesozoic mammals of China: Implications for phylogeny and early evolution of mammals","volume":"1","author":"Meng","year":"2014","journal-title":"Natl.
