Kovács, L.: Data to the knowledge of Hungarian Macrolepidoptera. V. The occurrence and distribution of some noctuid species (Lepidoptera) in Hungary
these territories are present also in the Hungarian Natural History Museum, I submit their data for a further support of the respective communications (Map 1). I. Data from Hungary. Budakeszi, 8 Sept., 1951, 1 Ç> leg. I. KOVÁCS; Csillaghegv (north of Budapest), 19 March, 1911, 1 $, leg. MONDOK; Budapest, 28 Oct., 1897, 1 O, leg. ULBRICH; 4 Oct., 1919, 1 cf, leg. JABLONKAY; 16 Sept. and 17 Oct., 1921, 1-1 cf, leg. L. KOVÁCS; Pécel, 13 Sept., 1896, 1 çf, leg. ULBRICH; Peszér, 2 April,1949,l Ç , leg. L. KOVÁCS ; 24 Sept., 1949,1 çf, leg. I. BALOGH; Kaposvár, USept., 1938, 1 çf, leg. S. PAZSICZKY; Mesztegnyő (Com. Somogy), 9 April, 1964, 1 çf, leg. WETTSTEIN. The home specimens cited above represent without exception the nominate form. II. Other data. Czechoslovakia: Pozsony (Bratislava), 1 Q ; — Romania; Borosjenő (Ineu), 20 and 28 Sept., 1913, 1-1 çf and 1-1 O each, leg. L. DIÓSZEGHY; — Germany: Ilmenau, 1 $, coll.

These specimens, too, belong to the nominate form. With a single datum, we can also contribute to the extension of ssp. wiltshirei BOURSIN. The data of the female preserved in the Hungarian Natural History Museum are as follows: Ifrane, Morocco, 10 Sept., 1954 (upper label); Xnlina semibrunnea HB. var. maroccana RUNGS (lowel label). As yet I have no data whether the name var. maroccana is an in litteris designation or a published one. In this latter case, the problem of priority should also be cleared. 4. Sidemia zollikoferi (FREYER, 1835): a recent appearance of the species in Hungary after a latency for 134 years. C. F. FREYER described, in the second volume (fascicle 31) of his work "Neuere Reiträge zur Schmeiterlingskunde", published in instalments, a Noctuid moth under the name Noctua zollikoferi, discovered in 1834. Its first collector, A. KINDERMANN, sent it to him with the request that it be named to honour ESCHER-ZOLLIKOFER, a lepidopterist in Zürich. With reference to the fact that there already exists a lepidopterous insect called escheri, FREYER Fig. 2.
