Cretaceous Myanmar amber is abundant in inclusions belonging to the genus . In addition, a significant morphological diversity among representatives of can be observed. However, none of its representatives have been found in other fossil materials. Herein three new species: sp. nov., Skibińska and Krzemiński sp. nov. Skibińska and Albrycht, and sp. nov. Skibińska, Krzemiński and Zhang from Cretaceous Myanmar amber are described and illustrated. The very small size and characters of male hypopygium with aedeagus strongly bent and apically forked are pertinent to diagnosing the genus and species. New materials show that this genus and the whole subfamily Bruchomyiinae were probably more abundant and more diverse than the presently known extant fauna.
白垩纪缅甸琥珀富含属于该属的内含物。此外，可以观察到该属代表之间存在显著的形态多样性。然而，在其他化石材料中尚未发现其任何代表物种。在此描述并图示了来自白垩纪缅甸琥珀的三个新物种：新种Skibińska和Krzemiński、新种Skibińska和Albrycht，以及新种Skibińska、Krzemiński和Zhang。雄性尾须与阳茎非常小的尺寸以及阳茎强烈弯曲且顶端分叉的特征有助于该属和物种的诊断。新材料表明，该属以及整个小蕈蝇亚科在过去可能比目前已知的现存动物群更加丰富和多样。
