Abstract
Dramatic changes in ancient biotas usually interpreted as ecological crises or mass extinctions are treated in many publications of every sort, and yet our notions about such events remain insufficient. The data of fossil insect studies about the Permian—Triassic crisis, thought to be the greatest in the Phanerozoic, are reviewed here.
