Abstract

The author revise the Eupitheciini material housed in one of the largest public natural history collections in Hungary. Mainly on the basis of genitalia dissections 56 species and almost 2500 specimens collected in 66 sites of Hungary, and in many places from Slovakia and the Balkans, have been identified. Species or species-pairs posing problems are annotated and the important distinguishing characters are figured. Phenological data in decades are tabulated. It is established that the species Eupithecia abbreviata Stephens, 1831, E. absinthita (Clerck, 1759), Eupithecia pusillata (Denis & Schiffermüller, 1775) and E. denotata (Hübner, 1813) developed two annual broods in Hungary. The species E. addictata Dietze, 1908 has been recorded from South-western Hungary as new for the local fauna. The distribution of E. orphnata Petersen, 1909 in Hungary, hitherto erroneously figured in the European literature, is revised and has been illustrated correctly in a newly composed map. Eupithecia sp. cf. pusillata (Denis & Schiffermüller, 1775): In the Bakony Mountains there has been found a peculiar female specimen of Eupithecia, resembling strongly to the species E. pusillata. The genitalia of the specimen differs completely from E. pusillata with corpus bursae bottle shaped, signa small and dense, ductus bursae notably short and wide resembling more to E. actaeata, as well as to E. quercetartia. Because at present only a single such specimen is known, it cannot be decided, whether the specimen represents an individual aberration of E. pusillata or an undescribed taxon. All the data of the material examined in the present paper have been databased in the electronic databank of Eupitheciini of Hungary. Main text is in Hungarian with English summary, with 19 figures.
