Lonchaeidae of Hungary

The Hungarian Lonchaeid fauna has recieved attention in recent years with publications by Laszlo Papp in 2000, 2003 and 2004 summarising the current stutus of this family. During a visit to the Hungarian Natural History Museum in 2006 I was able to further review the collections and as a result publish a revised checklist.

In total 43 species are now recorded from Hungary, six new species have been added to the fauna whilst eight previous recorded species have been re-assesed and as a result have been removed from the list. Full details in the following reference :
