This is a nice pair of fossil flies in Baltic Amber. They are Long-Legged Flies (Dolichopodidae) from Russia. These flies are large and are easily seen in the amber piece. They are close enough to each other to make for a good display. This is a great example of Long-Legged Flies trapped in fossil ooze (close-up photo is included).
