type, this index is 1.67 to 2.12 on paratypes. Abdominal tergites 2, 3 and 4 with long marginal bristles also on their medial part (Fig. 8 ). Male surstyli (Figs 6 and 7 ) slightly asymmetrical, their outer surface spoon-like, median surface with a long conical tooth; this latter with ca. 3 bristle-like hairs. Aedeagal complex (Figs 9 and 10) strongly asymmetrical with a pair of wide caudal processes, aedeagus and aedeagal apodeme very short (Fig. 9 ), the latter shorter than 0.15 mm. Female cerci brown, comparatively short, with several wavely bent short hairs, the longest one is 0.13 mm. Type material: Holotype male: Hungary, "Bükk- hg.

The species described above as new is surely not conspecific with the specimens described under the name S. obsoletoides

. That species (see Schnabl, 1876) had only the apical third of its 3rd antenna! joint black. Though also the colour and pattern of the head is different from our specimens, we regard these features as unreliable. But SCHNABL'

s statement on the dark colour f

'dunkelbraun, beinahe schwarz") of the apical 4 tarsomeres of the fore tarsi and of the apical 3 tarsömeres of the other two tarsal pairs cannot be an inaccuracy in the description, since it is not only clearly observable but the tarsal colour is known as a reliable feature in the kinship of this species. In his ojiginal description SCHNABL compared his species with two species of Sapromyza (

S. apicalis and S. basalis

, there as "S. nana Loew") and with two species of the modern genus Lyclella Coll. (

L. sub- fasciata and L. illota)

. The short intracrossvein section of the medial vein - which is a remarkable similarity of the present description and SCHNABL'

s description - is shared by several species of Sapromyza and it can also be found in other lauxanild genera. Among the publication of the Palaearctic Lauxaniidae known by me, the description of S. dl- chromocera Czerny resembles most to that of this new one: apical 2/3 of its 3rd antenna! joint black, mesonotum with 6 rows of acmi; though it has a pair of brown lateral spots on the scutellum. Maybe it is a closely related species but since its description was based on a single female, Sapro myza dichromocera is an unrecognizable species. The new species has a peculiar aedeagal complex; the tooth on the medial surface of surstylus is unusual In Sapromyza

, too; marginal tooth on surstylus is known, e.g. in numerous species of Minettia and in Sapromyza afghanica L. Papp and in S. kabuli L. Papp. The new species was named in honour of Dr. Johann (A.) SCHNABL, the well-known GermanPolish dipterologist of the 19th century. REFERENCES BECKER, Th. (1895): Dipterologische Studien II. Sapromyzidae. - Berl. ent. Z., 40: 171-264. BECKER, Th.
