PAPP Department of Zoology, Hungarian Natural History Museum, H-1088 Budapest, Baross utca 13, Hungary Abstract - Discussion of the taxonomic position of the genus Chorebus HALIDAY, 1833. Nine new Chorebus species are described from Central Europe (seven from Hungary and two from Slovakia): Chorebus (Paragyrocampa ) catron sp. n., Ch. (Stiphrocera ) citreus sp. n., Ch. (Paragyrocampa ) convergens sp. n., Ch. (Stiphrocera ) irriguus sp. n., Ch. (Phaenolexis )pusi­culus sp. n., Ch. (Stiphrocera ) trapesus sp. n., Ch. (Stiphrocera ) unicus sp. n., Ch. (Stiphrocera ) vodaron sp. n. and Ch. (Stiphrocera ) zuntus sp. n. With 153 figures. Keywords - Chorebus, new species, descriptions. INTRODUCTION The genus Chorebus was erected by HALIDAY in 1833. Five years later HALIDAY (1838) raised the taxon Alysia LATREILLE, 1804 to generic rank and the following six taxa were assigned to it as subgenera: Aenone HALIDAY, 1833 (now synonym of Trachionus HALIDAY, 1833), Alysia LATREILLE, Chasmodon HALIDAY, 1838, Chorebus HALIDAY, Coelinius NEES, 1818 and Dacnusa HALIDAY, 1833. FOERSTER ( 1862), within his "26. Fam. Dacnuso­idae", significantly increased the number of the dacnusine genera: besides Chorebus he had set up further 19 new genera as well as including the genera Chaenusa HALIDAY, 1839, Coelinius NEES, 1818, Copisura (= Copidura) SCHIÖDTE, 1837 and Dacnusa HALIDAY, 1833. FOERSTER's generic names were either placed in synonymy or lowered to subgeneric rank in the three genera: Chaenusa, Chorebus and Dacnusa, respectively; only five genera re­mained valid: Agonia, Coloneura, Epimicta, Exotela and Synelix.
