General research
- A study on the diversity of insect herbivory on fossil angiosperm leaves from the Miocene Hindon Maar fossil lagerstätte (Otago, New Zealand) is published by Möller et al. (2017).[255]
- A study on the wing pad joints in several specimens of Carboniferous palaeodictyopteran insect nymphs, and their implications for the origin of insect wings, is published by Prokop et al. (2017).[256]
- An exceptionally preserved specimen of the early mantis species Santanmantis axelrodi, providing new information on the morphology of members of the species, is described from the Lower Cretaceous Crato Formation (Brazil) by Hörnig, Haug & Haug (2017).[257][258]
- A redescription of the Eocene thrips species "Heterothrips" dietrichi Schliephake (2003) is published by Ulitzka & Mound (2017), who transfer this species to the genus Merothrips.[259]
- A planidium, tentatively attributed to the order Strepsiptera, is described from the Late Cretaceous (Santonian) amber recovered from the Kheta Formation (Taymyr Peninsula, Russia) by Kathirithamby et al. (2017).[260]
- Several permineralised axes of the conifer wood Ningxiaites specialis with preserved beetle borings and beetle remains are described from the Permian (Changhsingian) Sunjiagou Formation (China) by Feng et al. (2017).[261]
- Peris et al. (2017) describe gymnosperm pollen preserved with a specimen of the false blister beetle species Darwinylus marcosi from the Cretaceous amber from Spain, and interpret the finding as indicating that false blister beetles originally were pollinators of gymnosperms (most likely cycads) before transitioning onto angiosperm hosts.[262]
