by Mr. P. Mikula (Narodni Muzeum, Praha). Antenna 23 jointed. Body black, abdomen, except first tergite, brownish black. - Distribution: reported from England and Czechoslovakia. New to the fauna of Hungary. Localities: Alacsony Tátra (= Nízke Tatry, Slovakia), Breznó, Bystra, 500-700 m, ló". Alacsony Tátra (=Nízke Tatry, Slovakia), Breznó, Mlynná dolina, 900-1200 m, 1 ff. Csehbánya, Középső Hajag, 1 6". Egyek, Ohat, 1 6. Magas Tátra (=Vysoké Tatry, Slovakia), Poprádi tó, 1500-1600 m. 1 6. Remec (=Reme^, Transylvania), 1 6. Velem, 1 6. - V-VII. Opius (Aulonotus) tenuicornis Thomson, 1895 Described from France on the basis of a single female. Later STELFOX (1948) recorded its occurrence in Ireland. In 1977 it was obtained in Hungary which is its third occurrence known in Europe. - Body 2. 5 mm (g) and 2. 3 mm (ó^) long. Upper half of propodeum with a medially faintly broken transverse carina, otherwise its surface rather uneven with few rugulae, shiny. Antenna 32 (1 g) and 31 jointed (1 6). Head behind eyes (in dorsal view) strongly constricted. First tergite scarcely one-third (g, 38:29, xlOO) and one-and-a-half times (Ó', 32:20, xlOO) longer than broad at hind. Second tergite longitudinally rugose, this sculpture laterally gradually weakening to smooth out. Ovipositor sheath (in lateral view) shorter than first tergite. Body blackish brown; head yeUow except blackish brown ocellar field and occiput. Oral organs, tegulae and legs yellowish white. Hind margin of tergites 2-3 (g) and tergites 4-8 entirely (6) yellow, every sternites of both sexes yellow. - Distribution: Ireland, France. New to the fauna of Hungary. Locality: Tihany, 1 g and ló'. - VII. Opius (Misophthora) tirolensis Fischer, 1958 Third femur 3.4-3.5 times longer than broad. Antenna 24-26 jointed. Two sides of propodeum almost with confluent and fine punctation, so reminds of the species of the subgenus Nosopoea Först. Lower part of head (cheek, clypeus, labrum, mandible, palpi) and legs vivid yellow. One of females from Gyulafirátót and the female from Bakonypölöske contrast with the re-description (FISCHER 1973); its first tergite not rugose and not black but longitudinally uneven and brown. Otherwise very similar to O. connivens Thorns. , further details see at this species. - Distribution: recorded its few localities in some European countries (Denmark, Germany, Italy, Austria, USSR: Leningrad). New to the fauna of Hungary, Romania (Transylvania). Localities: Bakonypölöske, Kupi erdő, 1 p. Budapest, Irhásárok, 1 6. Diósjenő, 2 é. Felsőörs, 1 g. Gyulafirátót, Kispapod, 2 g. Hadad (= Hodod, Transylvania), 1 g. Hárskút, Esztergáli völgy, 1 g. Iregszemcse, lg. - V-VIII. Opius (Misophthora) ulaanus Fischer, 1971 Body, in comparision with the holotype, slender, 1.6 mm long. Antenna 21 jointed. Third femur 3. 7 times as long as broad. - Distribution: described from Mongolia, hitherto known only on the basis of its types (1 g and 1 o). New to the fauna of Hungary, supposedly widely distributed in the Palaearctic Region. Locality: Gödöllő, lg. - V. Remark. - The type-series is deposited in the Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest; Hym. Typ. No. 2802-280 3. Opius (Phaedrotoma) vexator Fischer, 1964 According to the descriptions (FISCHER 1964, 1973) first tergite as long as wide at hind, however, the proportional size and the figure (1. c. ) modify it as first tergite somewhat longer than wide behind (8:7). The two Hungarian exemplars taken recently have a first tergite agreeing with the description, and strongly broadening posteriorly in relation to its nearest ally O. variegatus. Antenna 25-26 jointed. Tergites 2-3 chagreened. Cu2 rather indistinctly parallel sided contrasting with the description. Besides the first tergite further good specific difference seems the size of the ocelli, O. vexator

: ocelli rather large, distance between fore and a hind ocelli as long as greatest diameter of elliptic hind ocellus; O. variegatus: ocelli rather small, distance between fore and a hind ocelli somewhat longer than greatest diameter of elliptic hind oceHus. - Distribution: hitherto known only its holotype from ? Aachen (Germany). New to the fauna of Hungary.
