Helicoconis csorbái sp.n. (Figs 1-5) Holotype — Male, labelled as "Jammu and Kashmir, under administration of Pakistan, Gupis, 2000 m. a.s.l., 20.6.1992, G. Csorba and M. Hreblay" - deposited in the Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest. Description — Head capsule dark brown, eyes moderately large, black. Antennae 1.5 mm, 23 segmented, brown. Flagellar segments (Fig. 5) about two - two and a half times as long as broad, with a small projection ventrally. Ordinary hairs situated irregularly. A few rather narrow and scattered scale-like hairs are mostly on the dorsal surface of the segments. Thorax and legs brown. Length of the fore wing 2.8 mm, of the hind wing 2.5 mm. Anal field of the hind wing rather broad, distal cross vein between M and Cu j present. Wing membrane hyaline. Male terminalia: as in Figs 1-4. Ninth segment dorsally narrow, ventrally with a caudal protrusion. Appendage on ninth sternite weak, with fine grooves basally. Hypandrium narrow, with acute, median projection directed forwards, with rounded caudal edge, and with some moderately long hairs and two extremely long bristles. Styli long, unforked. Ventral projection of ectoproct not stalked, but rather large and strong. Parameres stout, their caudal apices bent in right angle ventrally. Rods of penis robust and broadly diverged cephally, split in a short distance and curved upwards caudally. Dorsal process of the penis sclerite large and pointed. Remarks: because of the structure of male genitalia (rounded caudal edge of hypandrium, unforked styli and dorso-caudally directed processes of penis) Helicoconis csorbái is allied with H. hispanica Ohm, 1965. The main distinctive features of Helicoconis csorbái sp.n. are: - caudal protrusion on the ventral part of the ninth segment; - large dorsal processes of penis; - strong caudal apices of parameres which bent down in right angle; - presence of scattered scale-like hairs on flagellar segments of antennae. Especially worth to note that the last mentioned characteristics had not been reported earlier in the subfamily Aleuropteryginae, but it was known in three genera of Coniopteryginae, namely in Coniopteryx, Neosemidalis and Nimboa (Meinander 1972a; Sziráki and Grève 1996). Etymology — I dedicate this new species to Dr. Gábor Csorba, one of the collectors of the present material. Coniopteryx (Xeroconiopteryx) latigonarcuata Meinander, 1972 Material — Jammu and Kashmir, under administration of Pakistan, Gupis, 2000 m. a.s.l., 20.6.1992: 1 male specimen. Hitherto this species was known only from Mongolia (Meinander 1972a). Coniopteryx (Xeroconiopteryx) venustula Rausch et Aspöck, 1978 Material — Pakistan, Garam Chasma, 2600 m. a.s.l., 25.6.1992: 1 male specimen; Islamabad, 23.5.1992: one male specimen. This coniopterygid species is widely distributed from Iran to Sri Lanka and Yemen (Monserrat 1996; Sziráki 1997), however, from Pakistan it hitherto was not reported.
