Abstract
Gedanochila museisucini gen. et sp. nov. is described, based on inclusions in the Eocene Baltic amber. A morphological phylogenetic analysis supports the placement of Gedanochila gen. nov. into the tribe Achilini. Definition, content and subdivisions of the tribe as well as position of extinct taxa placed within are briefly discussed.
