ROVARTANI KÖZLEMÉNYEK LIX 1998 pp. 121-123 Two dipterous families new to Hungary (Diptera: Pseudopomyzidae and Chiropteromyzidae) L. Papp Two dipterous families new to Hungary (Diptera: Pseudopomyzidae and Chiropteromyzidae). Pseudopomyza atrimana (Meigen, 1830) and Chiropteromyza wegelii Frey, 1952 represent two families, which have not formerly been reported from Hungary. INTRODUCTION Richard Frey (1952) published a paper on two peculiar genera of the acalyptrate flies, Chiropteromyza, which he described as new genus and species there, and Pseudopomyza Strobl. This short paper is just on these two genera but this is quite accidental as the genera and species are firstly reported here as representatives of two dipterous families. The two families are not related phylogenetically. PSEUDOPOMYZIDAE This is a small family with two genera and two species (Krivosheina 1984), of which Pseudopomyza atrimana occurs in Europe. Formerly it was recorded from Austria (typelocality: "Austria inf."), Germany, Finland, Romania (Gyergyószentmiklós) and North European Russia (Leningrad region) (Krivosheina 1984). Quite recently it was found also in Korea. I added "H" into the manuscript if Dr. Krivosheina, since the specimen published below had been in the collection of the HNHM, when the psedopomyzid part of the Catalogue of Palaearctic Diptera was edited. However, this species and so this family has not been recorded formally with locality data hitherto. *This paper is regarded as one of the first results in the project "Large blank spots in the Diptera fauna of Hungary".
