03DE87E8FF93FFB8FF65FA19FEFFED17.taxon	description	Description. Macropterous female (Fig. 1 A – C), 6540 μm long and 3377 μm large. Body and legs with fine granulation; antennae densely covered with tubercles bearing setae. Color gray-brown with irregular lighter areas and a paler membrane. Head 1099 μm long and 1304 μm (Fig. 2 A). Antenna four-segmented, 2037 μm long, with antennal segment II longest; antennal segments’ lengths: I: 242, II: 801, III: 547, IV: 447. Antennal tubercles distally pointed. Eyes large, spherical, projecting laterally (Fig. 2 A). Vertex with U-shaped transverse depression. Rostrum four-segmented, slightly surpassing prosternum. Pronotum More than twice as wide as long in the middle, 939 μm long and 2244 μm large (Fig 2 B). Lateral margins broadly rounded and distally converging, strongly and irregularly dentate. With four longitudinal carinae, middle two developed throughout their entire length and approaching one another in an X-shape; lateral carinae expanded only from proximal margin to transverse furrow of pronotum. Shoulders bulged with a short longitudinal ridge. Proximal margin medially slightly indented, laterally rounded. Scutellum Triangular, 1432 μm long. Lateral margins raised like ridges, slightly indented medially, converging toward narrowly rounded apex (Fig. 2 B). Surface in basal third slightly elevated and coarsely granulated, otherwise transversely wrinkled. Hemelytra 4020 μm long and 1391 μm large (Fig. 2 C). Corium in basal third broadly rounded with finely dentate lateral margin; distal angle reaching to one-third of dorsal laterotergite VI. Surface with pronounced longitudinal and transverse venation. Crossvein m – cu distal to the a – cu crossvein. Membrane with four longitudinal veins; two middle ones (cubitus and media) unite distally in a curved arch, forming a closed cell. Surface wrinkled. Abdomen 3377 μm broad. Lateral margins of visible laterotergite III – VI evenly rounded, not protruding; VII slightly protruding and distally narrowly rounded. Ventrally with median longitudinal furrow. Female terminalia invisible under “ cloudy ” layer. Legs Slender; femora tapered proximally and distally; trochanter of pro- and mesofemora fused, but with a seam separating the metafemoral trochanter. Tibiae cylindrical, slender. Tarsi 2 - segmented, with long, distally curved pretarsal claws.	en	Azar, Dany (2025): Description of the female of Aradus superstes Germar & Berendt, 1856 from the Eocene Baltic amber (Hemiptera: Aradidae).
