TOE-WINGED BEETLE AND DARK-WINGED FUNGUS GNAT
Age: 45 million years
Period: Eocene
Location: Baltic States, Jantarny, Russia
These toe-winged beetles, which belong to the superfamily Byrroidea, live mostly in damp grass,
along water fronts and in forests. They feed on weeds, and some plant species.
Dark-winged fungus gnats, which belong to the Diptera order, have 1,700 as yet not formally de-
fined species. The fossils pictured show that both species of insect didn't change for tens of millions
of years, in other words, they didn't evolve. These specimens, unchanged for 45 million years, in-
validate the theory of evolution and confirm Creation.
