Caputoraptor

Caputoraptor is a genus of insect from the Cenomanian aged burmese amber containing two species: the type species Caputoraptor elegans, as well as Caputoraptor vidit.[1] It is part of the extinct order Alienoptera. C. elegans is notable for the presence of a scissor like mechanism consisting of a straight edge on the back of the head and corresponding serrated edges on the first thoracic segment, these were probably used by the female to grasp the male during mating. Its morphology suggests a predatory habit inhabiting shrubs and trees.[2]
