Abstract: A review of the family Throscidae, based on new records and literature data, is made. Aulonothroscus brevicollis (Bonvouloir), Trixagus carinifrons (Bonvouloir), T. gracilis Wollaston, and T. leseigneuri Muona, as well as the genus Aulonothroscus Horn are reported from Bulgaria for the first time. For the time being, six species from two genera are known to live in the country. Four species from the family were found to live sympatrically and syntopically in a spot in the Maleshevska Planina Mts.
