The dance fly Hilara sp. belongs to the subfamily Empidinae of Empididae. The mitogenome (GenBank accession number: MN064659) of Hilara sp. was sequenced, the new representative of the mitogenome of the subfamily. The nearly complete mitogenome is 14,927 bp totally, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNAs, and 22 transfer RNAs. All genes have the similar locations and strands with that of other published species of Empididae. The nucleotide composition biases towards A and T, which together made up 75.7％of the entirety. Bayesian inference analysis strongly supported the monophyly of Empidoidea, Empididae, and Dolichopodidae. It is clear that the phylogenetic relationship within Empidoidea: Dolichopodinae was the sister group to Neurigoninae, and Empidinae was the sister group to Trichopezinae, and the clade that contains Dolichopodinae and Neurigoninae was assigned to the sister group to the clade that contains Empidinae and Trichopezinae.
