Abstract
Two families, two tribes, 30 genera and 57 insect species are described as new from Taimyr amber, as well as the first new plant genus and species to be described from this amber during the 21st century. Based on the study of the Taimyr amber, two Cretaceous zoogeographic realms (“Baeomorpha” and “Isoptera”) are recognized.
