Palaeodictyoptera
The Palaeodictyoptera are an extinct order of medium-sized to very large, primitive Palaeozoic paleopteous insects, characterised by beak-like mouthparts, similarity between fore- and hind wings, and an additional pair of winglets (large Paranotal lobes) in front of the first pair of wings. The wings are often boldly marked, the colour patterns evident even in fossils.
