FOLIA ENTOMOLOGICA HUNGARICA ROVARTANI KÖZLEMÉNYEK Volume 63 2002 pp. 149-156. Mycetophilidae (Diptera): additions and corrections to the "Checklist of the Diptera of Hungary"* J. SEVCÍK and L. PAPP Abstract: One genus (Pseudorymosia) and 33 species of Mycetophilidae are recorded as new for the Hungarian fauna. Epicypta fumipennis Bukowski, 1934, syn. nov., is a junior subjective synonym of Platurocypta testata (Edwards, 1925). Some corrections to the Checklist are given. Key words: Mycetophilidae, taxonomy, faunistic survey, new records, Hungary INTRODUCTION Last year the book "Checklist of the Diptera of Hungary" was published, which established a new situation in the further faunistic survey of the dipterous fauna of Hungary. That book is serving as a reference for all the former publications; of course the Checklist is with errors and failures, so corrections are to be made, particularly in the next couple of years. The aim of the project "Large blank spots in the Diptera fauna of Hungary" is unaltered (to collect and to publish species representing dipterous families and genera formerly not recorded from Hungary). Representatives of species collected during our collection program and some results from the preparatory period of the project have already been published (see Papp 1999, 2000, Sevcík & Papp 2001): numerous genera and more than 110 species new to the fauna in Mycetophilidae were reported. In 2001 more than 50000 mycetophilid specimens were captured, of which 2513 mycetophilid specimens were selected and pinned. In the course of our latest venture we found one genus and 33 species of Mycetophilidae new to Hungary, mainly in the newly collected materials, as well as among other unnamed specimens (newly sorted materials). For abbreviations and translation of the Hungarian texts on collection labels see Papp (1999,2000). * This paper was written for the project of "Large blank spots in the Diptera fauna of Hungary", supported by the Hungarian Scientific Research Fund (OTKA, No. T 30242).
