Abstract: | The Icelandic fauna of fungus gnats in the families Keroplatidae and Mycetophilidae is revised based on available material lodged at the Icelandic Institute of Natural History; the Zoological Museum in Copenhagen, Denmark; the Museum of Zoology in Lund, Sweden; and the Museum of Zoology in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Eight species names previously published from Iceland are removed from the Icelandic fauna due to misidentifications. Three replaced names and 20 new species are added; viz. Allocotocera pulchella (Curtis, 1837), Sciophila hirta Meigen, 1818, S. parviareolata Santos Abreu, 1920, Boletina basalis (Meigen, 1818), B. gripha Dziedzicki, 1885, Leia fascipennis Meigen, 1818, Anatella sp., Brevicornu auriculatum (Edwards, 1925), B. verralli (Edwards, 1925), Exechia borealis Lundström, 1912 sp. restit., E. micans Lastovka & Matile, 1974, E. pectinivalva Stackelberg, 1948, E. pseudofestiva Lackschewitz, 1937, E. sp. A, Exechiopsis ligulata (Lundström, 1913), Rymosia speyae Chandler, 1994, Mycetophila marginata Winnertz, 1863, Phronia bicolor Dziedzicki, 1889, P. braueri Dziedzicki, 1889, P. taczanowskyi Dziedzicki, 1889, Trichonta atricauda (Zetterstedt, 1852), T. terminalis (Walker, 1856) and Zygomyia pseudohumeralis Caspers, 1980. |
