Compare Fossihelea gracilitarsis (Meunier, 1904) and Stilobezzia. You may be able to distinguish them with

Szadziewski, Ryszard. 1988. Biting midges (Diptera, Ceratopogonidae) from Baltic Amber. Polskie pismo entomologiczne, 58(1): 3-283

Both genera are in tribe Ceratopogonini; Stilobezzini was synonymized after the paper was published.
