Abstract First records of fourteen species of moth flies are from Slovakia mentioned: Apsycha pusilla (Tonnoir, 1922), Clytocerus (Boreoclytocerus) splendidus Ježek & Hájek, 2007, C. (B.) tetracorniculatus Wagner, 1977, Jungiella (Jungiella) hygrophila Ježek, 1987, J. (J.) valachica (Vaillant, 1963), J. (Psychocha) laminata (Szabó, 1960), Parajungiella prikryli Ježek, 1999, Pericoma (Pericoma) exquisita Eaton, 1893, P. (P.) ljubiniensis Krek, 1969, P. (P.) vestita Vaillant & Withers, 1993, Psychoda alticola Vaillant, 1973, P. uniformata Haseman, 1907, Pneumia compta (Eaton, 1893) and P. kabelaki Omelková & Ježek, 2012. Records on the basis of larvae of Berdeniella manicata (Tonnoir, 1920), Pericoma (Pericoma) pseudoexquisita Tonnoir, 1940 and Pneumia stammeri (Jung, 1956) in the past are first time confirmed as adults from Slovakia. Some detailed important morphological characters males of two selected species Pericoma (Pericoma) exquisita and P. (P.) pseudoexquisita are figured. All credible and available data of non-biting moth flies (Diptera: Psychodidae) from Slovakia were summarized (396 localities) and many new collecting sites (visited by different collectors from 1977 to 2013) added (188 localities). A suitable grid mapping for Central Europe was used. A preliminary conservation status of 51 rare species is discussed. The speciesrichness of the psychodid fauna in Slovakia is increased by this paper to 117 species.

Heteropanope glabraStimpson, 1858 belonging to family Pilumnidae is reported for the first time from the mangrove mudflats of India. The identification of the species is difficult because the species shares similar morphological characters with other closely related species likeBenthopanope indica(De Man, 1887). Studies in the past have reported the presence ofH. glabrafrom coastal areas of Burma to Japan. The present study reports the presence ofH. glabraon the western coast of India, which lies outside the old distribution range of the species.

Occurrence Records

The genus Gasteruption (Gasteruptiidae) is represented in Europe by more than 30 species. Of these, twenty-one are recorded from the Czech Republic and Slovakia, with six being new records for the Czech Republic and eight for Slovakia. Three species are recorded as new for Bohemia (western part of the Czech Republic). Gasteruption goberti is excluded from the fauna of the Czech Republic because specimens previously identified as G. goberti belong to G. caucasicum. Four species (G. assectator, G. caucasicum, G. jaculator and G. nigritarse) are common and widespread in both countries, G. tournieri is very common but prefers warmer regions. Only G, subtile occurs predominantly in higher altitudes of mountain ranges, while the other species are usually restricted to or are more common in warmer regions. Gasteruption opacum and G. subtile are regionally extinct from the Czech Republic and G. paternum from Slovakia, with the the most recent records of these species are pre-1990. Gasteruption freyi, G. hastator and G. hungaricum are considered very endangered thermophilous species of loess walls and steppe habitats with a marked loss of occurrence records post-1990. Locally common but much rarer than in the past are G. erythrostomum and G. boreale. Due to the fact that recent determination keys are focused on other regions, a determination key for all species recorded in central Europe is presented.

Abstract The present article is an upgrade and update of national checklists published by the Slovenian Rarities Committee in the past. A species is considered rare if fewer than 10 records are known after 1st January 1950. The number of records for these species is given in the list. Additionally, species designated as rare in the last edition of the list and extinct breeders were also considered. All records after 1st January 2001, included in the list, were confirmed by the current Slovenian Rarities Committee. Data collection for the period between 1st January 1800 and 31st December 1949 was centred on evaluating written sources, which were the basis for inclusion of a species into previous editions of the list. The data classification and taxonomy follow the recommendations of the British Ornithologists' Union. The list includes species observed at least once between 1st January 1800 and 31st December 2011. The list of birds recorded in Slovenia contains 380 species, of which 365 are in Category A, seven in Category B and eight in Category C. Category D contains six and Category E 29 species. These species are not part of the list. In comparison with the last version of the list published in 2001, 10 species recorded in Slovenia for the first time during this period were added. Two species were added because of taxonomic changes and five due to changes in species categories. Seven species were removed from the list owing to inaccurate information in historic written sources or misidentification.

Investigations indicated that the scorpions are scattered in all parts of Iran. Few researches have been carried out to identify and study morphology of the scorpions of Iran. In the present investigations, several species of scorpions from Kerman Province ( Iran ) have been identified. The scorpions usually live under the stones. To obtain the scorpions, heavy materials including stones, clod and so on, were moved by crow bar and woods. The specimens were captured with a tongs. To study the morphological characters and identify the scorpions, Olympus Lica 2000 stereo microscope and key identify to scorpions, were used. In the present research a species of scorpions belonged to Hottentotta genus and Buthidae family, is reported for the first time from Kerman Province (Iran). This species is called Hottentotta schach and has been collected from Manoujan area, situated in the south and southwest of Kerman Province. The H. schach is a rare species, it is shaggy and some parts of it'sbody are dark. This species lives in height over 1000 meter and also is found in mountainous areas. Beside of this species, 6 other species called: Compsobuthus matthiesseni,Androctonus crassicauda, Odontobuthus doriae, Mesobuthus eupeus, Sassanidotus gracilis, Orthochirus farzanpayi, from this family, are found in the mentioned area. In taxonomy, the scorpions are order belonging to arachnida class, phylum arthropoda, super phylum invertebrate sub kingdom of metazoan and kingdom of animal. The weather in south of Kerman Province is warm and relatively humid.

For this revision of <em>Porpidia</em> species from Poland, 1400 specimens from public and private Polish herbaria, as well as other major European herbaria, were examined. The taxonomy, chemistry, habitat requirements and distribution of <em>Porpidia albocaerulescens</em>, <em>P. cinereoatra</em>, <em>P. contraponenda</em>, <em>P. crustulata, P. flavocruenta, P. grisea, P. macrocarpa, P. melinodes, P. nigrocruenta, P. soredizodes, P. speirea, P. superba, P. thomsonii, P. tuberculosa</em> and <em>P. zeoroides</em> in Poland are presented. <em>Porpidia thomsonii</em> is reported as new to Poland and Central Europe. New records of <em>P. contraponenda</em> very rare species in Poland, are given. The occurrence of <em>P. flavicunda, P. hydrophila, P. rugosa</em> and <em>P. trullisata</em> has not been confirmed during this study, therefore their status remain unknown. The lichenicolous fungi, <em>Endococcus propinquus, E. </em>aff.<em> propinquus</em> and <em>Muellerella pygmaea</em> on <em>Porpidia</em> were also noted during this study. As a result of examination of extensive reference material <em>P. macrocarpa</em> is recorded for the first time for Bulgaria and Ecuador, <em>P. speirea</em> − for Bulgaria, and <em>P. soredizodes</em> − for Ecuador and Mexico. A key to taxa in Poland, including those with unconfirmed occurrence there, is provided.

New Nomenclatural Combinations

When treated in a broad sense, Iris (the ‘rainbow-flowers’) is one of the most diverse and well-known genera in the Asparagales. However, recent conventional phylogenetic and three-taxon statement re-treatments of the molecular data (cpDNA) for the irises (‘Iris sensu latissimo’ clade) showed that the obtained patterns of relationships appeared to be fully congruent to the narrow taxonomical arrangement of Iris (sensu stricto) to include only the bearded irises. Given this, we propose a new taxonomic arrangement of the rainbow-flowers with at least 25 previously recognised infrageneric taxa here accepted at the generic rank, of which 19 have already been treated as separate genera by different authors in the past. Morphological, phytochemical, karyological, distributional and molecular data are discussed which support the newly proposed system. Five genera and one section are described as new, 1 genus is amended, and 114 new nomenclatural combinations (2 genera, 3 sections, 1 series, 86 species, 14 varieties and 8 nothospecies) are established to accommodate the accepted names to the new generic system. Morphological descriptions and nomenclatural types are reported for each accepted genus, with types of four genera being designated here for the first time. Tentative distribution maps of relevant taxa, and illustrations of the most reliable morphological characters are included for the accepted genera. Principal synonyms and publication details are shown, and accepted infrageneric taxa are only referred to when previous information is not available. A key is also reported for genera identification. Our proposal mostly accords with the traditional distinction of groups currently in use by horticulturists, and it is favoured against an alternative treatment of an expanded Iris which renders a highly heterogeneous genus.

Abstract From the economical point of view, the genus Ganoderma is one of the most important groups of Basidiomycetes due to their medicinal effects and also because they cause decay in a very wide range of tree species all over the world. In this study new data of the Hungarian Ganoderma species are published and the specimens in accessible Hungarian herbarium collections are processed and revised. The article includes the nomenclatural status, the morphological characters, the host preference, frequencies and the details of the fungarium samples of six Ganoderma species (Ganoderma adspersum, G. applanatum, G. carnosum, G. cupreolaccatum, G. lucidum, G. resinaceum) as well. In total 215 Ganoderma specimens are examined and 10 hosts of the six native Ganoderma species new for Hungary are presented. The Hungarian locality and time of the collection of the only Ganoderma carnosum (IZ3122) specimen and two new localities of this rare species is published here for the first time.
