European species of the Mycetophila ruficollis group are compared on the basis of morphology and sequences
of mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit one (COI) and the ITS2 region of nuclear ribosomal
DNA. The study represents the first evaluation of morphology-based species delimitation of closely
related fungus gnat species by applying molecular information. Detailed descriptions and illustrations
of the male terminalia are presented along with a key for the identification of all nine European species
of the group. Phylogenetic analyses of molecular data generally supported the morphological species
discrimination. The barcoding region of COI superseded ITS2 rDNA in resolving species. In the COI
barcoding region interspecific differences ranged from 2.9 to 10.6\% and the intraspecific distance from
0.08 to 0.8\%. Only COI data distinguished between the similar and closely related M. ichneumonea and
M. uninotata of which the latter was observed to include cryptic species. The host range of some species is
suggested to be narrower than previously considered and to depend on the forest type. Presented evidence
indicates the importance of analysing sequence data of morphologically very similar mycetophages reared
from identified host fungi for elucidating species delimitation as well as their geographic and host ranges.
New country records, viz. Estonia for M. evanida, Georgia for M. ichneumonea, M. idonea and M. ruficollis,
and Norway for M. strobli, widen the known distribution ranges of these species.

Two new Mycetophilidae species, Neuratelia jabalmoussae sp. n. and Neuratelia salmelai sp. n. are described
on the basis of material collected from Lebanon, Estonia and Finland. Detailed figures of male
terminalia and photographs of general facies are provided along with discussions of their morphological
distinction from sibling species. For the first time molecular characters are used to distinguish new fungus
gnat species. Molecular analysis relies on cytochrome oxidase subunit one (COI) but has additionally been
corroborated by information from the 28S and ITS2 regions of nuclear ribosomal DNA. Situations where
morphological and molecular data provide conflicting evidence for species delimitation are discussed. A
new country record from Georgia is provided for Neuratelia caucasica.

A new species of Mycetophilidae, Cordyla australica sp. n., is described from continental Australia and
Tasmania, representing the first Cordyla record in the region. A detailed description of its morphology
with illustrations of male and female terminalia and a map of the collecting localities are provided. According
to the structure of male terminalia, C. australica sp. n. belongs to the C. murina species-group
that has 13 species worldwide. Within the group C. australica sp. n. resembles C. murina but has a unique
outline of the hypoproct and medial branch of the gonostylus. The observed distributional pattern is
restricted to the rainforest of eastern Australia and Tasmania.
