Body length: holotype Ó": 4.16 mm, paratype dbl 3.85-4.70, paratype <j>: 3.62 mm (when in alcohol; a little bit smaller when pinned). Holotype ő: Szaporca, tópart (=lake shore), talajcsapda (=soil traps), 2-30. August 1973, leg. Zs. BAJZA & LI PAPP. Paratypes: 1 ó*: data as for holotype; ló", 1 j: Aranyosgadány, láprét (= boggy meadow), talajcsapda, 31. August - 1 October 1973, leg. ZS. BAJZA & L. PAPP. C. (Copr omyza) pseudostercoraria sp. n. is closely related to C. stercoraria Meig., but its legs are almost completely yeBow, and the shape and armature of the male surstyli are wholly different (Fig. 1, cf. Fig. 2). The type-specimens are deposited in the Zoological Department of the Hungarian Natural History Museum. The specimens are pinned from alcohol deriving from soil trap material, thus their bodies are covered with very small soil particles.C. (Copromyza) stercoraria (Meigen, 1830). - A: 1 B: 1 ó\ 1 <j>, G: 1 $. Male surstyli pointed (Fig. 2) y with long thick bristles also on apical half. The drawing was made from the genitalia of a male specimen, which was found in the same soil trap as a pseudostercoraria sp.n. male. The shape of the surstyli agrees well with Fig. 31 of HACKMAN (1965). This species is rather common in mammal burrows and it was reared from litter taken from burrows of rat-vole; it occurs also on manure, but generally it is terricolous. Cop roi ca ferruginata (Stenhammar, 1854): A: 1 ó", B: 2 <5, G: 1 <?, 3 ç - Cop roi ca vagans (Haliday, 1833): G: 1 ç - Elachisoma aterrimus (Haliday, 1833): G: 1 j - Li- mosina bifrons Stenhammar, 1854: A: 1 6, G: 2 5, 3 o - Limosina mirabilis (Collin, 1902): A: 3 6, G: 1 6. All these species are coprophagous developing in large numbers mainly in dung heaps. Two kilometres back in the dominate wind direction there were big dung heaps of stable manure in Aranyosgadány (l° ca Bty A and B). As all these species were found in two localities only, it seems highly probable that the wind blew some of the millions of the specimens of these species, which develop in dung heaps (cf. PAPP, 1975) to the sites of soil trapping. These data can be regarded as proofs of the statement that in the distribution of the above coprophagous species the wind (passive flight) and human activity play much bigger role than the active flight of the flies. Puncticorpus cribratum (Villeneuve, 1918) - 112 ő, 164 <j>. A: 1 ó, G: 2 6, 1 ç, B: 4 ó, 5 o, I: 20 6, 59 ç, J: 25 ô, 29 0, HNP2: 1 â, BNP 3: 30 ó, 42 $, HNP4: 1 6, BNP 6: 21 6, 21 HNP7: 2ç, BNP 8: 6 Ó, 5 ç, HNP9: 1 Ó. Commonest species in our soil trap materials. First ROHÁCEK (1974) wrote about this species that it is a common one, when collected by soil traps. It was reared from fungi (PAPP 1972) and found in small mammalian burrows and in ant nests. As it appears to me, all these records are related to the micromycophagous habit of the species. P . susannae L. Papp, 1974 - A: 1 <j>. Formerly described from the present soil trap material. Unfortunately, male still unknown.
