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.

Altogether one species of Bolitophilidae, 16 species of Keroplatidae and 105 species of Mycetophilidae are recognised as occurring in Sardinia. As the bolitophilid and two of the mycetophilid species are represented only by females and are not determined to species level, the total confirmed Sardinian list stands at 119 species. Four species of Keroplatidae and 19 species of Mycetophilidae are new to the total Italian fauna, whereas three species of Keroplatidae and 32 species of Mycetophilidae are newly recorded for the island of Sardinia. Six species are described as new to science: two Keroplatidae (Urytalpa juliae sp. nov., Macrocera nuragica sp. nov.) and four Mycetophilidae (Boletina ichnusa sp. nov., Trichonta sandalyon sp. nov., Sciophila benjaminbottomi sp. nov., Sciophila immodesta sp. nov.). The new synonymy Zygomyia valida Winnertz, 1863 = Zygomyia simplex Strobl, 1895 syn. nov. is established. Macrocera penicillata Costa, 1857 is tentatively considered as a synonym of M. phalerata Meigen, 1818. Label data are provided for 5 and 17 species recorded without further detail in the Fauna Europaea online database, respectively from Italian mainland and Sicily; one species, Mycetophila alea Laffoon, 1965 is newly recorded for Sicily. Three species based on unconfirmed 19th century records cited by Hellrigl from South Tyrol should be deleted from the Italian list: Exechiopsis indecisa (Walker, 1856), Mycetophila signata Meigen, 1830 and Mycomya storai Väisänen, 1979.10aBolitophilidae10adistribution10afungus gnats10aItaly (mainland)10aKeroplatidae10aMycetophilidae10anew records10anew species10aSardinia10aSicily10aTaxonomy1 aChandler, Peter, J.1 aCerretti, P.1 aMason, F.1 aMinelli, A.1 aNardi, G.1 aWhitmore, D. uhttp://mapress.com/zootaxa/2009/f/zt02318p506.pdf01155nas a2200181 4500008004100000245008900041210006900130300001000199490000700209520056400216653002900780653002600809653002400835653001900859653002200878100002400900856004900924 2006 eng d00aAdditions and changes to the British fauna of fungus gnats (Diptera: Mycetophilidae)0 aAdditions and changes to the British fauna of fungus gnats Dipte a77-890 v193 aSix species of Mycetophilidae are added to the British list from Scotland.

The four known Brazilian species of Sciophila MEIGEN, described but not figured by EDWARDS (1940), are redescribed and their male genitalia figured. Lectotypes are designated for three of these species. The Chilean species S. ocreata Philippi, 1865 is treated similarly for comparison. A close relationship between these species is suggested. Sciophila ocreata is newly recorded for Juan Fernandez Island and is confirmed to be conspecific with a species recently found to he established in New Zealand.

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.
