Coniceromyia, Rhynchomicropteron, Phora, Hypoceridites View in CoL and amber genera M and P

The above-mentioned genera form a clade based on the following synapomorphies: head with one to two genal setae and one to two short parafacials, more than two hypoproct setae and a phallapodeme connected to the left side of the hypopygium. Rhynchomicropteron shares with Phora and possibly other genera a R 1 characteristically curved at the apex and absence of sternite 7 in females. Phora amber species compose a series of nodes that gradually transition to the morphology of living species in the development of the right surstylus, elongation of extra frontal setulae and increase in the number of midtibia posterodorsal setae.
