Abstract: The checklist of the Heteroptera fauna of Hungary is complemented. Xylocoris (Stictosynechia) lativentris (J. Sahlberg, 1870) (Anthocoridae), Orsillus maculatus (Fieber, 1861) (Lygaeidae) and Ochetostethus halcanicus (Wagner, 1940) (Cydnidae) are reported as new species to the fauna of Hungary. Re-examination of voucher specimens concluded that the following species were recorded from Hungary by misidentified specimens only, therefore these are deleted from the Hungarian checklist: Scutelleridae: Odontotarsus robustus Jakovlev, 1884; Pentatomidae: Neottiglossa lineolata (Mulsant and Rey, 1852). Species previously recorded from Hungary but erroneously omitted from the latest published checklist are discussed as well. Keywords: Heteroptera, Hungary, faunistics, new record. Introduction Based on critical study of the literature, an up-to-date checklist of the Heteroptera occurring in Hungary was published by Kondorosy (1999). A few years later the same author supplemented his checklist with additional records, corrections of some erroneously reported or omitted species, and a summary of new records published after his checklist (Kondorosy 2005). Only a few species have subsequently been recorded from the country (Torma 2005, Harmat et al. 2006, Rédei 2006). The aims of present study were 1) to clarify the occurrence of some species previously reported from Hungary and 2) to report new species to the fauna of Hungary. Material and Methods All studied specimens are deposited in the Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest (HNHM).
