Fungus gnats (Diptera: Sciaroidea excl. Sciaridae) in the Swedish boreonemoral forests

• Fungus gnats in boreonemoral forests of south Sweden are studied using material collected with Malaise and window traps from 17 localities in the years 2001 and 2002. 250 species are recorded including 76 species new to Sweden. 14 of these are found in Fennoscandia for the first time: Docosia setosa Landrock, D. spec. (indet. sensu Hutson et al. 1980), Brevicornu cognatum Ostroverkhova, Mycetophila eppingensis Chandler, M. lobulata A. Zaitzev, M. pyrenaica Matile, M. subsigillata A. Zaitzev, Sceptonia cryptocauda Chandler, S. flavipuncta Edwards, S. longisetosa Ševcik, S. pilosa Bukowski, S. pughi Chandler, Sciophila interrupta (Winnertz) and S. plurisetosa Edwards. One new synonym is proposed: Dynatosoma dihaeta Polevoi, 1995 = Dynatosoma schachti Plassmann, 1999 syn. nov.
