Etymology. Gujaratmyia is the combination of the name of Indian state of Gujarat where Cambay amber occurs and the suffix - myia , Greek for “fly”. The gender is feminine. Type species. Gujaratmyia rotunda Bickel sp. nov. Diagnosis. [This generic diagnosis is based on a single male specimen and emphasizes characters considered to be of generic importance.] Body length about 1.1 mm ; head large with respect to size of thorax, and ovate, higher than wide; face as narrow band separating eyes; postpedicel rounded, subtriangular, arista dorsal; posterior mesonotum apparently flattened; femora II and III each with distinct anterior preapical seta near 4/5; TII with strong ad seta at 1/3; veins R 4+5 diverging from M 1 near base, and becoming slightly bowed and subparallel with M 1 beyond level of dm-m crossvein; R 4+5 joins costa at 7/8, M 1 joins margin slightly behind wing apex; hypopygium forming ovoid cap over apex of abdomen, and with short distal appendages. Remarks. Gujaratmyia is a monotypic genus, and the species G. rotunda has the posterior mesonotum apparently flattened, the dorsal postcranium is strongly concave, femora II and III have anterior preapical setae, and the slightly divergent veins R 4+5 and M 1, all characters reminiscent of the subfamily Enliniinae , discussed above.
