replying to T. Hornschemeyer et al. Nature 494, http://dx.doi.org/10.1038/nature11887 (2013) Since the nineteenth century, Devonian insects have repeatedly proven to be something else1, 2, 3, 4, 5, the sole exception being Rhyniognatha. Recently the Devonian insect Strudiella devonica6 has been denied by Hornschemeyer et al.7, who could not “confirm the presence of a mandible or of mandibular teeth”.
