Abstract: Three species of Ancylolomia are recorded from Hungary. Data are reported on the geographical distribution of Ancylolomia tentaculella (Hübner, 1796) in Hungary. Biological data and habitats of the species are presented. Distribution is shown on maps. Structure of male genitalia and morphological characteristic of wings are illustrated with colour figures and distributed map. With 5 figures. Keywords: Lepidoptera, Crambidae, Ancylolomia tentaculella, faunistic, new distribution data, biology, Hungary. Introduction The new paper on Ancylolomia species in Hungary is the result of about 120 years’ work by various Hungarian lepidopterists (Abafi et al. 1896, Szent-Ivány & Uhrik- Mészáros 1942, Gozmány 1963, Fazekas 1995, 1996, Pastorális 2011, Fazekas et al. 2011). Among the most productive contributors to Ancylolomia taxonomy are to be mentioned Gozmány 1963: p. 133-134.) with two species, A. palpella Denis & Schiffermüller 1775 andzi. disparella (Hübner, 1813) (See Fig. 1). Previously widely used reference books on the Crambidae of Hungary such as Gozmány (1963) lack many species and are no longer compatible with modem nomen- clatural and taxonomical standards. There is no top quality identification literature covering the complete fauna of Hungary. Unfortunately there is only scant faunistic data for many Hungarian regions and appropriate long-term observations are mostly wanting. Fig. 1.
