The Silba admirabilis species group is diagnosed within the genus Silba Macquart by the combination of partly yellow
tarsomeres and the distinctive features of the male genitalia. Thirteen new species within this species group are described from the Afrotropical region; namely Silba bakongo MacGowan sp. nov., Silba boulangi MacGowan sp. nov., Silba bredoi MacGowan sp. nov., Silba garamba MacGowan sp. nov., Silba hambai MacGowan sp. nov., Silba inimvua\ MacGowan sp. nov., Silba lubumbashi MacGowan sp. nov., Silba mbuti MacGowan sp. nov., Silba saegeri MacGowan sp. nov., Silba spiculata MacGowan sp. nov., Silba tekei MacGowan sp. nov., Silba upemba MacGowan sp. nov., and Silba wittei MacGowan sp. nov. Ten previously described\  species within the genus Silba are also identified as belonging to the S. admirabilis species group. One species of the genus Lonchaea also belonging to this group is re-assigned to Silba.
The synonymies Silba displata McAlpine, 1964 = Silba hilli (Malloch, 1928) and Silba fragranti MacGowan, 2007 = Silba\ chalkei McAlpine, 1956 are established. A key and illustrations of male genitalia are provided to all species. Further\ information is presented relating to the taxonomy and distribution of previously described members of this species group\ whose range extends from the Afrotropical to Australasian regions.

Examination of Lonchaeidae in the collections of two European museums revealed two undescribed species of Lonchaeidae from Greece, one in the genus Dasiops, D. hellas spec. nov., and one in the genus Lonchaea, L. spicata spec. nov.. These species are described and their relationship to other species of European Lonchaeidae is discussed.

This publication represents the first full review of British Lonchaeidae (Diptera) since Collin (1953). Iain MacGowan is responsible for adult taxonomy and Graham Rotheray for larval taxonomy.\  The British fauna is placed in a European context and a short overview of Lonchaeidae world-wide is provided. The number of species recognised as British has grown from 28 in 1953 to 46 in 2005 and a revised British checklist is provided.\  Adult and larval morphology are described and key characters illustrated and discussed. Adult and larval ecology is reviewed.\  Fully illustrated keys to adults are provided for the 5 genera and 46 species of British Lonchaeidae. A key to known puparia is also provided. Species accounts are given which provide additional taxonomic notes, review the British and European distribution of each species and give detailed ecological information where available.
