274 NATURA SOMOGYIENSIS were discovered here in the 1960's, and the first bathing facilities were built in the 1980's. Nowadays it is not only a comfortable spa, but also the only rehabilitation centre in the region. The water contains fluoride and alkali-hydrogen-carbonic, thus it is mostly recommended for those who have some kind of motor disease, stomach or enteric problems or some illness of the mouth, heart or blood-system. Scientists from Hungary and other European countries noticed the special biogeographical features of the Tolna County from as early as the 19th century. In the 20th century, famous botanists and zoologists travelled through the region. A series of smaller and larger zoological publications were published in Hungarian, Austrian and German scientific reviews. As a result, the name of Tolna County became generally known in Europe. However, there was no systematic research undertaken in this geographical area until now. The history of lepidopterological investigation of the Tolna County goes back to the collecting activity of PILLICH (1914) of Simontomya. In accordance with the usual practice of that period, he unfortunately failed to label his material, and the nomenclature he applied gave rise to several misinterpretations. More recently, additional data on micro-moths and butterflies of the area have appeared in other short publications (FARKAS 1992; FAZEKAS 1992, 2001b, 2008b, PILLICH 1914). This study presents a list of 436 Microlepidoptera species recorded from the area around Dombóvár-Gunaras (SW Hungary, Tolna County; see Fig. 1.). The account is based on material collected mainly by Arnold Schreurs (NL-Kerkade) and Willy Biesenbaum (D-Velbert-Langenberg), which is deposited in Regiograf Institute, H-Komló, and on the above-mentioned literature sources. The bulk of the information available is the result of research by Arnold Schreurs. The arrangement of the species is based on the classification still followed in Hungarian Microlepidoptera literature (FAZEKAS 2002, PASTORÁLIS 2010). Significant species from the territory from a faunistic point of view Abbreviation in the text: HNHM= Hungarian Natural History Museum (Budapest), JPM= Janus Pannonius Museum (Pécs). Ornixola caudulatella (Zeller, 1839) (Gracillariidae) - Material examined: Dombóvár, Gunaras, 1 $,12-23.07. 1999; \<3, 15.06.2003; 2$, 13-23.06.2006. Very local and rare on the Southern-Transdanubia: Diósviszló, Fonyód, Gyűrűfu, Kaposvár and Pécs (FAZEKAS 2001, 2002; SZEŐKE 2009). Larva oligophagous. Foodplants in Hungary: Salix spp.. The moth is bivoltine and flies May-June and July-August. Habitats: willow and birch mire woodlands, riverine willow-poplar woodlands, riverine ash-alder woodlands. Generally rare and local in Hungary. Elachista alpinella Stainton, 1854 (Elachistidae) - Material examined: Dombóvár, Gunaras, 28, 1-15.08.1997; 2 8, 25-31.08.1998; \S, 26.07-7.08. 2008, det. W. Biesenbaum. Rare species with very isolated populations in Hungary. The data in the literature are vague. Sporadic records of distribution from Hungary: - "Budapest, 1912.V.13., leg. Uhrik", in coll., HNHM (Szőcs 1973); "Pécs, 1955.V.31., leg. Nattán" (FAZEKAS 2002; SZABÓKY 1983: in coll. Nattán, JPM); Agárd, Dinnyés ( PETRICH 2001). There are no verified records of E. alpinella from the Great Hungarian Plain and it is not recorded from western Hungary. Widespread in the western and northern parts of Europe. Larva oligophagous on Carex spp., and overwinters in the mine. Flight period
