“…Mycetophila lunata Meigen, 1804 was interpreted broadly in old sources, and although it was confirmed by Silfverberg (2001) with a reference to Polevoi (1995) this record has later shown to belong to another related species, Mycetophila sublunata Zaitzev, 1999. Hence, Mycetophila lunata still needs to be confirmed from Finland.…”

A checklist of the ’fungus gnat’ group of families in Sciaroidea: Bolitophilidae, Diadocidiidae, Ditomyiidae, Keroplatidae and Mycetophilidae (Diptera) recorded from Finland. At present, the known Finnish fauna comprises 767 recognized species in 78 genera; 21 species of the family Bolitophilidae, 5 of the family Diadocidiidae, 2 of the family Ditomyiidae, 47 of the family Keroplatidae and 692 of the family Mycetophilidae. The unassigned genus Sciarosoma Chandler, 2002 is not included in this paper because it is listed with Sciaridae.The most relevant synonyms, on which species were ever listed from Finland in Hackman (1980) and subsequent authors are indicated in the checklist. Eighteen species names of wrong records were removed.

“…Leptomorphus quadrimaculatus Matsumura, 1916 was added to the list of Finnish insects by Silfverberg (2001) with a reference to Polevoi (1995). This record has later shown to belong to Leptomorphus subforcipatus (Zaitzev and Ševčík 2002).…”

“…However, the only explored locality in the north-eastern part of the Kola Peninsula, beyond the line connecting Murmansk with Pulonga (the most eastern site reached by our expedition in 2004: Kozlov & Kullberg 2006), is the mouth of the Ponoj river. From this site Kozlov & Jalava (1994) reported 69 species from the samples which have been collected by Finnish entomologists during the second half of the 19 th century and the beginning of the 20 th century [see Silfverberg (1988) for history]. Surprisingly, only eight species of Lepidoptera were earlier reported from the tundra and sub-tundra localities to the east of Murmansk (Kozlov & Jalava 1994), although the road to Dalniye Zelentsy was accessible for 4WD cars already several decades ago.…”

Sampling of 10 sites in 1994–2006 along roads connecting Murmansk with Teriberka and Dalniye Zelentsy yielded 140 species of moths and butterflies. Epinotia immundana and Ortholepis vacciniella are recorded for the first time from the Kola Peninsula, which increased the regional fauna to 690 species. Although some arcto-alpine species have been collected (in particular Sparganothis praecana, Catastia kistrandella, Euphydryas iduna, Glacies coracina), the fauna was clearly dominated by species typical for the forested habitats of the central part of the Kola Peninsula. This result suggests that the ‘routine’ sampling in north-eastern tundra between Murmansk and Ponoj might not be as important in terms of biogeography as it has been expected. Instead, new collecting trips should be oriented to areas with special vegetation, primarily limestone or sandy areas which are more likely to support more eastern and/or arctic species.

“…That material was utilized in a check-list of Finnish Diptera (Hackman 1980) comprising 485 species of fungus gnats. Since then, additions and deletions to the Finnish fauna of fungus gnats have been summarized by Silfverberg (1981Silfverberg ( , 1986Silfverberg ( , 1991Silfverberg ( , 1996Silfverberg ( , 2001) and Polevoi & Jakovlev (2004). The latter review brought the total number of fungus gnat species in the Finnish fauna to 589.…”

A new important parasitoid of Holcocerus insularis Staudinger, viz. Eriborus applicitus sp. n., collected from Shenyang, China, is described. The adults of E. applicitus emerge during the daytime, mostly at 8–11 AM, and start calling and mating one hour after the emergence. The ratio ofmales : females is approx. 2:3. Within 3–4 hours after their emergence, the newly-emerged virgin females strongly attract males; they are still attracting males at day 2, although their calling behavior seemsmuch less intensive than at day 1. No calling or mating behavior occurs during night time. Females can mate at least twice before laying eggs, while males can only mate once. Mated females search their hosts by walking on the bark surface of H. insularis-infested Malus baccata (L.) Borkh. trees for oviposition.
