SPHAEROCERINAE

Ischiolepta orientalis (DE MEIJERE, 1908) – 1 m 1 f: PF04/37; 3 m 2 f: PF04/43; 1 m: Trang Prov., Thung Khai Botanic G., on light, 12– 16.11.2004, Orosz. It is a widespread Oriental species new to Thailand .

Ischiolepta sp. – 1 m: FSz03/25. It represents an extremely interesting new species, since it is related to I. flava (VANSCHUYTBROECK, 1951) from Zaire. The new species will be described in a separate paper.

Ischiolepta sp. – 1 f: FSz03/25. This is the smallest Ischiolepta specimen known to me. I described I. minuscula from Tanzania, but this female with its 1.02 mm long wing is even smaller. Being a female, its description as new would be premature.

Lotobia asiatica HAYASHI & PAPP, 2004 – 1 m: PF04/7. Though recently described, it is a widespread Oriental species.

Lotobia supraelegans HAYASHI & PAPP, 2004 – 1 f: PF04/4; 59 m 21 f: PF04/5. It has been found on the dung of large hoofers in Nepal, India , Vietnam and Thailand, but mainly on elephant dung. The third species described from Thailand, L. latipes HAYASHI & PAPP, 2004 , was not found in our material.

Sphaerocera elephantis HAYASHI, 1990 – 2 m 4 f: PF04/5; 3 m: FSz03/25. It seems to be restricted to elephant dung.
