Declarations
:
: The current hard moratorium by the Society of Vertebrate Palaeontology (SVP) suggests February 2021 as a cut-off date for acquired amber material from Myanmar (Theodor et al., ). The amber pieces of this study were exported mostly before February 2021, but export dates are not available for all specimens. Another contemporary concern is that of involving local people in research in order to avoid so-called “parachute science” (e.g., Haug et al., ; Stefanoudis et al., ; Zin-Maung-Maung-Thein & Zaw ). We have successfully established a collaboration with biologists from the University of Yangon, Myanmar, to improve this aspect and recently published the first papers resulting from this collaboration (Haug et al., , 2023e).
