LIST OF SPECIES WITH COMMENTS ON THEIR DISTRIBUTION AND TAXONOMY Trigonoderus WESTWOOD, 1832 Remarks - The genus Trigonoderus WESTWOOD, 1832 (Chalcidoidea, Ptero­malidae, Miscogasterinae), with 20 valid species (NOYES 2003), has a world-wide distribution. Nine species were described from Europe (FÖRSTER 1841, GRAHAM 1993, NEES 1834, NOVITZKY 1955, THOMSON 1878, WALKER 1836, WESTWOOD 1832). The genus was revised by GRAHAM (1993). Four species, T. cyanescens (FÖRSTER, 1841), T. filants WALKER, 1836, T pulcher WALKER, 1836 and T princeps WESTWOOD, 1832 were reported until now from the Carpathian Basin (ERDŐS 1960, BOUCEK 1977, KALINA 1989). Trigonoderus nobilitatus GRAHAM, 1993 Material examined - Hungary, [Heves county], Bükk Mountains, [Eger], Pap-hegy, 4.VII. 1955, leg. M. RESKOVITS, 1 female, HNHM; Romania, Mures county, Târgu-Mure§, oak forest (Querco-Carpinetum), sweeping, 3.VII. 2004, leg. Z. LÁSZLÓ, 1 female, HNHM. Comparative material - France, Vaucluse, near Bedoin, holotype, leg. M. DE V. GRAHAM 12.VII.1980, det. M. DE V. GRAHAM 1993, 1 female, BMNH; unrealised (probably Germany), re­mounted by II. BAUR 1993, det. H. BAUR 2004, 3 females, NMBE. Remarks - The species was described from France and its distribution has been limited up to now only to France (GRAHAM 1993). Regarding the specimens collected in the Carpathian Basin the easternmost limits of its distribution seems to be here. The two collected female specimens were compared with the holotype and specimens collected in Western Europe and they appeared to be conspecific with T nobilitatus GRAHAM, 1993. The male of this species is unknown yet. Trigonoderus sokanowskii NOVITZKY, 1955 Material examined - Romania, Cluj county, Cluj-Napoca, Hoia forest (Carpineto-Quercetum), sweeping, 26.V.2004, leg. Z., LÁSZLÓ, 1 female, HNHM.
