* Mycodrosophila poecilogastra (Loew, 1874) View in CoL

MATERIAL. Russia: Mordovia State Nature Reserve , forest quarter 385, from mushrooms Boletus sp. , 12–18.IX 2023, 23 ♂, 38 ♀ (ME) .

DISTRIBUTION. Widespread in Palaearctic region including Russia ( Gornostaev, 1997; Sidorenko, 2001), recently found in Moscow and Tuva ( Gornostaev & Kulikov, 2021).

NOTES. It is the first record of this species in the Republic of Mordovia. Until now, it was believed that this species lives only in the North Caucasus and the south of the Russian Far East. However, after studying some fungi, where M. poecilogastra larvae can breed, we expanded its areal to the center of European Russia and southern regions of Siberia .
