Protoorbellia hoffeinsorum gen. and sp. nov., a new heleomyzoid genus and species of the tribe Orbelliini Gorodkov from Baltic amber (Diptera: Heleomyzidae)
The first finding of representative of the tribe Orbelliini as inclusion is presented with description of a new genus Protoorbellia for a new species Protoorbellia hoffeinsorum from Baltic amber. The taxonomic position and relationship within the tribe Orbelliini is discussed. A key to the all genera within the tribe is presented.
