Orfelia nigricornis (Meigen, 1830) — K-Mecsek TK, 1999: 2 males: Obánya, Óbányai-völgy, patak fölött/Malaise csapda, május 25., 30.; 1 male: Komló: Zobákpuszta, Hidasi-völgy, május 26. A species new to Hungary. Orfelia unicolor (Staeger, 1840) — Zempléni TK: 1 male: Nagyhuta, Vajda-völgy, patak fölött, 1999. június 8., Papp L., Szappanos A. A rare species new to Hungary. Rocetelion humerale (Zetterstedt, 1850)— 1 male: Bükk hegys., 1955. VII. 11-17., leg. Mihályi - Ablakoskő-völgy (without any more label). It is mysterious how this spec­imen survived the 1956 fire. A genus and species new to Hungary. MYCETOPHILIDAE A huge family, even in its sensu stricto form. Thalhammer (1900) listed only 10 species from localities within the present borders of Hungary, but even those specimens were lost (see above at Keroplatidae). After the 1956 fire, all the extensive collectings made mainly by Ferenc Mihályi, resulted also in numerous sciaroid specimens. In the seventies Drs L. Matile (Mycetophilidae and also the smaller sciaroid families), R. J. Gagné (Trichonta), W. Hackman (Phronia), P. Lastovka (Mycetophila) and R. Väisänen (Mycomya) identified materials from the HNHM. Altogether ca. 2400 specimens were so identified. Dely-Draskovits (1974) made extensive rearings of flies from sporophores of macro fungi in Hungary, including ca. 17,000 specimens of Mycetophilidae s.str. (of nearly 60 species, some identified as "sp." in named genera only). Unfortunately, only a minor part of the would-be voucher specimens were pinned and labelled at that time; specimens pinned later were added to the unnamed specimens in the HNHM. Also she published (Dely-Draskovits 1983, 1987, 1996) faunistical lists of the Hortobágy, Kiskunság and Bükk National Parks, including Mycetophilidae and the related small families; regretfully, it was seldom that she published any more than specimens identi­fied by the above-mentioned workers. A surprisingly high number of genera and species new to our fauna was collected in 1999. In order to know the true value of these latest collectings (compared to those made before), about half of the unnamed material preserved in the HNHM from Hungary was also at least selected into genera or identified to species (altogether ca. 7000 specimens). At the beginning of the year 2000 there were ca. 10,000 specimens of Mycetophilidae in the HNHM from Hungary selected at least to genera but other 7000 are still unsorted. Voucher specimens of about 170 mycetophilid species are now preserved in the HNHM; probably as many as that are to be identified from the unnamed material here and many more have not been collected yet. Below 19 genera and 33 species are listed as new to the fauna of Hungary (some other interesting species are also mentioned). I must note also here that I am not a specialist for the group so only the first representatives of genera, etc. are mainly identified and listed, i.e. also this paper is prepared to serve the Checklist only. For comparison, I may note that 16 species new for our fauna (mostly acalyptrates) were published in two parts from the Bükk National Park by the present author after five years of collecting activity and seven dipterous species (of the families studied by me) new to Hungary were reported from the Aggtelek National Park as a result of collecting for an even longer period of time. Although a good number of modern works treat tribes in the Catalogue of Palaearctic Diptera as subfamilies, the taxonomy used in my former paper (Papp 1999) kept also here (i.e., five tribes in two subfamilies). However, Manota Williston is separated to at least in a third subfamily (Soli et al. (2000) treated it as a genus in Mycetophilidae).
