Pseudobrachypeza helvetica (Walker, 1856) — K-Mecsek TK (3 males, 1 female): 1 male, 1 female: Obánya, Óbányai-v., patak fölött és mellett, július 20., Papp L., Bajza Zs.; 2 males: Komló, Zobákpuszta, Hidasi-völgy, patak fölött és mellett, július 21. This genus and species are new to Hungary. Chandler (1998) questioned the identity of P. pseudohelvetica Plassmann, 1984.1 have 12 males, which may fit better to the latter one but based on some genitalia preparation, also I am rather irresolute. Stigmatomeria Tuomikoski, 1966 — This genus was listed as a subgenus of Brevicornu Marshall, 1896 in the Catalogue of Palaearctic Diptera (Lastovka 1988) with two species but it keyed as a genus by Soli et al. (2000) in the Palaearctic Diptera manual with only one included species, S. crassicornis (Stannius, 1831). This species seems to be common in Hungary. However, I found also another species in our material differring in male genitalia. With regard to the junior synonyms to crassicornis, I do not want to risk an increasing mess by describing that additional species as new, so I publish only data of the specimens I identified as crassicornis. Stigmatomeria crassicornis (Stannius, 1831) — Börzsönyi TK: 1 male: Verőce, Magyarkút, Keskenybükki-patak fölött és mellett, 07. 25.; 1 male: Szokolya, Szén-patak felső folyása, május 19., Papp L., Csorba G.; 2 males: ibid., patak fölött, július 4.; 1 male: Diósjenő, Király-kút környéke, Petasites, 1997. 06. 10. Zempléni TK: 1 male: Füzér, Alsó-patak fölött és mellett, június 29., Papp L., Bajza Zs.; 2 males: Pálháza, Komlóska-patak partján, 1998. 05. 21.; 2 males: Pálháza [correctly: Regéc], Ördögvölgy, 1998. 05. 20. K-Mecsek TK: 1 male: Obánya, Óbányai-völgy, patak fölött, május 25. Aggteleki N.P.: 1 male: Jósvafő, Tengerszem, erdei tisztás, 1988. 10. 13.; 1 male: Szögliget, Ménes-p. völgye, 1988. 07. 18. 1 female: Gánt, Fáni-völgy, erdei aljnövényzet, 1996. 10. 24.; 1 female: Vérteskozma, Fáni-völgy, aljnövényzet, 1997. 09. 28. 1 female: Mátraszentimre, 1984. 06. 04., Mihályi. Hortobágy N. P.: 3 females: Újszentmargita, erdőszél, talajcsapda, 1976. 06. 12., Kaszab. This species is new for the Hungarian fauna; though Thalhammer (1900) listed it under the name Allodia crassicornis Stann., all those localities are out the the border of the present Hungary. Synplasta Skuse, 1890 — This generic name is a senior subjective synonym of Gymnogonia Tuomikoski, 1966. Of those specimens, which were identified by L. Matile in 1972, Dely-Draskovits (1983) published S. praeformida (Dziedzicki, 1910) and S. venosa (Dziedzicki, 1910) from the Hortobágy NP and S. praeformida (Dziedzicki, 1910) from the Bükk N. P. (Dely-Draskovits 1996). There is also a male of S. excogitate! (Dziedzicki, 1910) identified by Matile in the HNHM. Our material from Hungary may contain several (ca. five) other species of the genus. This generic name is published for the first time in connection with the Hungarian fauna. DIXIDAE A small family of little studied species. Szabó (1959), in his revision of the dixids of the Carpathian Basin, noted that a single specimen of Dixa was found in the old collection of the HNHM (i.e. in the one before the fire!). He collected numerous specimens and listed four species of Dixa and two species of Dixella (as "Paradixa Tonn, subgenus"). As for the latter ones, he described Dixa (Paradixa) atra sp. nov., which later proved to be a junior synonym of Dixella monticola (Nielsen, 1937). Unfortunately, after his death inadequate curating of his collection at the Debrecen University resulted in the destruction of those type specimens and numerous other dipterous specimens by
