Proposed corrections to the check-list ofRácz (1998): According to our present knowledge the following taxa do not occur in Hungary: Poecilimon affinis (Frivaldszky, 1876) (sic!), in reality: 1867, Nemobius sylvestris (Bosc, 1972 (sic!), in reality: 1792, Pseudopoclisma fieberi (Scudd, 1897) (sic!) in reality: (Scudder, 1898), Chorthippuspullus (Philippi, 1830), Chortippus eisentrauti, Ramme, 1931, Chortippus loratus (Fischer de Waldheim, 1864) (sic!), in reality: 1846). The majority of these species might got into the (newer) checklists from those old data of occurrences, which became (after 1920) outside of the present Hungarian territory. The species Epacromius tergestinus (Charpentier, 1825) should be mention conditionally, too. However, the following taxa should be added to Rácz's check-list, because their occurrences had been earlier verified: Isophya brevipennis Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1878, Tetrix ceperoi (Bolivar, 1887), Tetrix bolivari Saulcy, 1901. Some further remarks may be found below. *11 The taxonomical relationship (and dispersion) between Isophya kraussii, I. pyrenaea (Serville, 1839) and /. camptoxypha (Fieber, 1853) are not sufficiently clarified. *2

1 Poecilimon brunneri Frivaldszky, 1867 (Brunner-pókszöcske) - a closely related species of P. fussii - was discovered as a new taxon for Hungary (and for Central Europe, too) after closing this check-list (Nagy 2003). *39 In Hungary - presumably - it is represented by the eastern subspecies (?) Platycleis (albopunctata) grisea (Fabricius, 1781), but it needs further clarification. *45 We have no new records since many decades. It might be very restricted in distribution or even became extinct (?), supposedly because of the increasing use of pesticides in greenhouses. *51 Related species, Nemobius sylvestris (Bosc, 1792) was omitted from the present list, because it has not been detected since 1867. *60 77. tuerki needs confirmation for Hungary because of some dubious data. *68 According to Nadig (1989), specimens from the "Giinsergebirge" (at the Austro-Hungarian border) show an intermediary position between Miramella alpina and M. irena Fruhstorfer, 1921. It needs further investigations. *74 Accepting Pseudopodisma nagyi as a separate taxon, the close relative, mostly southern P. fieberi (Scudder, 1897) seems to be illogically mentioned in the Hungarian check-list (see Kisbenedek 1997, Rácz 1998). *77 The relationship of Ch. albomarginatus and C. oschei needs clarification. The latter one seems to be more common in Hungary, while the former occurs, as presently known, in NW Hungary (K. M. Orci pers. comm.). *79 In SE Europe, so in Hungary too, the taxon Ch. biguttulus is represented by ssp. hedickei Ramme, 1942.
