Three described species, Neureclipsis triangula sp. nov., Neureclipsis acuta sp. nov., and Neureclipsis obtusa sp. nov., expand the Neureclipsis cluster to six species dominating the Polycentropodidae in Burmese amber. The new species Plectrocnemia ohlhoffi sp. nov. and Plectrocnemia bowangi sp. nov. of the Polycentropus cluster add to the comparatively low occurrence of Polycentropodidae in Burmese mid-Cretaceous amber.
