(1991), including three extant genera and three additional extinct genera from the Eocene Baltic amber, Eocene Florissant, and mid-Cretaceous Burmese amber. We describe herein two new taxa, Myanmarpsilocephala grimaldii gen. et sp. nov. and Irwinimyia spinosa gen. et sp. nov., from mid-Cretaceous Burmese amber. The female genitalia of Myanmarpsilocephala gen. nov. and male genitalia of Irwinimyia gen. nov. are described and illustrated. The distribution of all Apsilocephalidae species and a key to all genera of Apsilocephalidae is provided. The described diversity of Apsilocephalidae in Burmese amber strongly suggests that apsilocephalid flies diversified at least by the mid-Cretaceous.This research was supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (41572010, 41622201, 41688103), the Chinese Academy of Sciences (XDPB05), and Youth Innovation Promotion Association of CAS (No. 2011224).application/pdf© 2017 Elsevier B.V.ApsilocephalidaeMyanmarpsilocephala gen. novIrwinimyia gen.novDipteraCretaceousBurmese amberTwo new genera of Apsilocephalidae from mid-Cretaceous Burmese amber201810.1016/j.cretres.2017.11.026
