subfamily Blacinae Blacus NEES, 1819 VAN ACHTERBERG (1988) published a world revision of the subfamily Blacinae summarizing the available taxonomic, systematic, faunistic-zoogeographic and phylogenetic results. From among the 165 blacine species included in the revision (of which 53 species had been described as new to science) 13 species were captured by Dr. GY. TOPÁL (mammalogist, Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest) in India during his two collecting trips in 1966-1967 and 1980. Subsequently it seems reasonable to disclose the faunistic contributions of these species (the specimens are deposited in the Department of Zoology of the Hungarian Natural History Museum): Blacus (Tarpheion) albiventris VAN ACHTERBERG, 1988 -ló*: India, West Bengal, Darjeeling, below North Point, 1200 m, 16 October 1967 (No. 838). 1 i: India, West Bengal, Darjeeling District, Kurseong, 1000 m, 18 October 1967 (No. 849). - Described from Nepal, new to the fauna of India.
