Institute of Systematics and Evolution of Animals, Polish Academy of Sciences, S?awkowska, Kraków 17, 31-016, PolandWe would like to thank Christel and Hans Werner Hoffeins (Hamburg) for making their specimen available for our study. We would like to acknowledge the editors and two anonymous reviewers for valuable comments and corrections. This project was supported in part by an ISEA PAS grant (no. 6085/E-47/M/2017), supervised by Kornelia Skibińska. The authors declare no conflict of interest.
Two new fossil subgenera and two new fossil species of the genus Tipula Linnaeus, 1758, Tipula (Succinica) berendti subgen. and sp. n. and Tipula (Gedanica) adamowiczi subgen. and sp. n., are described from Baltic amber and compared with other species of Tipula known from the Eocene. The two new subgenera and species described herein are an excellent bridge between recent specimens and those preserved in sedimentary rocks, and thus enrich knowledge on the evolution of the family.
