Three species of Keroplatidae and two species of Mycetophilidae were found in association with hothouse plants at nurseries in the Netherlands. One of these, Leia arsona Hutson, was already known to be widespread in association with cultivation in Mediterranean and subtropical climates and has probably been introduced to more temperate regions by horticulture. The other four species include three known species of Neotropical origin (Lyprauta chacoensis (Edwards), Proceroplatus trinidadensis (Lane), Sciophila fractinervis Edwards), which have not previously been reported outside South or Central America, while the other species Lyprauta cambria sp. nov. is newly described but is also considered to be Neotropical in origin.

A new genus of fungus gnats Lusitanoneura gen. n. (Diptera: Mycetophijidae), allied to Ectrepesthoneura Enderlem, 1911, is described to include Ectrepesthoneura chandleri Caspers, 1991 from Crete and Cyprus and L. grando-lensis sp. n. from Portugal. These species are considered congeneric with each other but not with the bulk of species hitherto assigned to Ectrepesthoneura.

The species of fungus gnats (Bolitophilidae, Diadocidiidae, Ditomyiidae, Keroplatidae and Mycetophilidae) occurring in Greece and Cyprus are reviewed. Altogether 201 species are recorded, 189 for Greece and 69 for Cyprus. Of these 126 species are newly recorded for Greece and 36 are newly recorded for Cyprus. The following new taxa are described from Greece: Macrorrhyncha ibis spec. nov., M. pelargos spec. nov., M. laconica spec. nov., Macrocera critica spec. nov., Docosia cephaloniae spec. nov., D. enos spec. nov., D. pasiphae spec. nov., Megophthalmidia illyrica spec. nov., M. ionica spec. nov., M. pytho spec. nov., Mycomya thrakis spec. nov., Allocotocera scheria spec. nov., Sciophila pandora spec. nov., Rymosia labyrinthos spec. nov.; M. illyrica is also recorded from Croatia. The following new taxa are described from Cyprus: Macrocera cypriaca spec. nov., Megophthalmidia alnicola spec. nov., M. cedricola spec. nov. The following new synonymies are proposed: Mycomya tenuis (WALKER, 1856) = M. intermissa PLASSMANN, 1984 syn. nov., Phronia willistoni DZIEDZICKI, 1889 = P. incisa CASPERS, 1991 syn. nov. A key is provided for the western Palaearctic species of Macrorrhyncha WINNERTZ. The composition of the fauna of these families in Greece and Cyprus is discussed in relation to the Mediterranean and to the wider distribution of genera and species.
