  • Pseudogarypus

    Pseudogarypus is a genus of pseudoscorpions in the family Pseudogarypidae, first described by Ellingsen in 1909. The genus includes both extant and extinct species, with at least four species known from Eocene fossils preserved in Baltic amber. Members of this genus are distinguished by distinctive morphological features including horn-like protrusions on the thorax and elongated chelae. The extinct species P. synchrotron was described in 2011 using synchrotron imaging to reveal details obscured by amber inclusions.
