Ragas eocenica appears to possess slender phallic filaments, also observed in the extant species, R. circinata Sinclair & Saigusa. Ragas succinea sp. nov. (Figs 2, 13-15) Type material. Holotype male and paratype female in Baltic amber, with following label data: "HOLOTYPE/ Ragas/ succinea/ Sinclair & Hoffeins"; "CCHH 1458-1" (SDEI).
