Abstract: Three new subgenera and five new species of fossil crane flies are described from Baltic amber (Eocene). Their affinities with other recent and fossil subgenera of Dactylolabis limoniids are discussed. The systematic position of Dactylolabis vetusta Alexander, 1931 is corrected. A key for all Baltic amber species of Dactylolabis is given. Subgenera et species novae: Aurolabis, subgen. n., Eobothrophorus subgen. n., Eolabis, subgen. n.; Dactylolabis (Aurolabis) labis, sp. n., Dactylolabis (Eolabis) latusta sp. n., Dactylolabis (Eobothrophorus) alna sp. n., Dactylolabis (Eobothrophorus) altata sp. n., Dactylolabis (Eobothrophorus) lauryni sp. n.
