The family Hybotidae (Insecta: Diptera, Empidoidea) is recorded for the first time from the bio-inclusions of Sakhalinian amber (Russia). Almost all inclusions studied belong to the subfamily Tachydromiinae. First results suggest that tachydromiines were not uncommon in a palaeo-biotope, where a resin known nowadays as Sakhalinian amber was produced.

The Tephritidae family, commonly referred to as true fruit flies, comprises of a substantial group within order Diptera. Numerous species within this family are major agricultural pests, with a tendency to infest a wide array of fruits and vegetables in tropical and sub- tropical regions, leading to considerable damage and consequent reductions in the market value of the crops.

After removing four BINs due to uncertain order-level taxonomy, these BINs were linked to 12 insect orders, with the majority (84%) belonging to Diptera. In contrast, only 572,383 sequences were ...
