Abstract

The first European record of Exechia inaperta Ostroverkhova, 1979 is presented
and its morphological difference from the allied E. exigua Lundström, 1909 is
discussed. Diagnostic characters and detailed figures ofmale terminalia are given
for both species. The new finding of E. inaperta in Estonia indicates a possibly
disjunct Euro-Siberian distribution pattern of the South-Taiga, also observed in
several other species of fungus gnats.
