ROVARTANI KÖZLEMÉNYEK LXII 2001 pp. 283-292 Cyclorrhaphan flies new for the fauna of Hungary (Diptera)* L. Papp Cyclorrhaphan flies new for the fauna of Hungary (Diptera) — First records (or first reliable records based on voucher specimens) for species of Platypezidae, Phoridae, Strongylophthalmyiidae, Sepsidae, Sciomyzidae, Lauxaniidae, Chamaemyiidae, Pallopteridae, Anthomyzidae, Sphaeroceridae, Carnidae, Milichiidae, Agromyzidae, Scathophagidae, Fanniidae, Muscidae, Tachinidae are reported (44 spp.). The genera Microsania, Menozziola, Strongylophthalmyia, Xenosepsis, Tetanura, Xenolimosina, Ptochomyza, Acanihocnema, Hydromyza, Piezura and Cinochira arc recorded for the first time here. This is the first record of the family Strongylophthalmyiidae from Hungary. Key words: Platypezidae, Phoridae, Strongylophthalmyiidae, Sepsidae, Sciomyzidae, Lauxaniidae, Chamaemyiidae, Pallopteridae, Anthomyzidae, Sphaeroceridae, Tethinidae, Carnidae, Milichiidae, Agromyzidae, Scathophagidae, Fanniidae, Muscidae, Tachinidae, faunistic survey, new records, Hungary. INTRODUCTION In the frame of the project Large blank spots in the Diptera fauna of Hungary our aim is to collect and publish species representing dipterous families formerly not recorded from Hungary. As a matter of course, species representing not recorded genera are also targets of our activity. The results of the collections made in 1999-2000 are included also in the "Checklist of the Diptera of Hungary"; a part of them is reported in this paper. In the course of compiling manuscripts for the Checklist, we found also specimens identified by famous specialists but never published. Some of the records in this paper are this kind of supplements. Again, specimens collected earlier (even two or three decades ago) are also published here, in order to avoid publication of first records in the Checklist. All the specimens below are preserved in the Diptera collection of the Department of Zoology, Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest (below: HNHM). The months arc given as given on the collection labels, i.e., May: május, 05, June: június, 06, July: július, 07, October: okt, 10, etc.; since labels are written in Hungarian, months come first. The following Hungarian words are on numerous labels: "patak fölött": over the brook, "patak fölött és mellett": over and along/beside the brook. Some abbreviations used also on collection * This paper was written for the project of "Large blank spots in the Diptera fauna of Hungary", supported by the Hungarian Scientific Research Fund (OTKA, No. T 30242).
