S. Mahunka szerk.: Folia Entomologica Hungarica 30/2. (Budapest, 1977)

Every member of the group participated, on occasion, in every kind of collecting; the main burden of the special zoological collecting work fell on the two zoologists, but Dr.A .EMBEY-ISZTIN, though charged with the task of interpreting, was nearly always and in every aspect of great help in our work, and Dr.Zs.DEBRECZY also contributed some valuable material in his free time. For the invaluable help in the organizing and realization of the mission, we have to express our thanks, besides those due to our immediate colleagues, to Mrs. HORVÁTH, Institute ofForeignRe­lations, J. KÁLLAI, chargé d'affairs, and to I. SZILÁGYI, second secretary, both of the Embassy of the Hungarian People's Republic in Tunisia, to M. KAMEL BELKHODJA, Director of the INAT, to Dr.KACEM M'SADDA, councillor of the INAT, to Dr. RIBA DIBA, senior research worker of the INAT, and to M.NEJI DJEREDI, who accompanied us nearly from the first to the last days in Tunisia, and who, besides attending to all our requests, also helped extensively in our collecting work. List of localities The serial numbers are those of our collecting diary, they are also given on the labels and give additional information.
