Abstract: The fungus gnat genus Allactoneura is basically Afro-Oriental in distribution, extending into the eastern Palaearctic, New Guinea and northern Australia. New data on the distribution of Allactoneura argentosquamosa, A. akasakana, A. cincta and A. formosana are presented. A. akasakana is discussed as probable synonym of A. argentosquamosa.

Keywords: Allactoneura, China, distribution, Japan, Oriental Region
