摘要
Lower brachyceran flies are abundant in the Late Mesozoic of China.Many extant and extinct members of that have been found in Inner Mongolia,Liaoning,Hebei and Shandong provinces. A new family,Origoasilidae fam.nov.,belonging to the lower Brachycera,is built based on a new specimen from the Yixian Formation and is a representative of the Jehol Biota.The new endemic Mesozoic family possesses several unique characters in the wing.The relationship among the Origoasilidae fam.nov.and relative known lower brachyceran flies has been discussed.
