In this paper the results of a Phoridae collection from Košice Zoo in eastern Slovakia are reported. An unusual trap method was employed – BG-Sentinel 2 mosquito traps combined with CO2 as an attractant. Between July and October 2023, 73 species of the Phoridae family were recorded, 24 of which are new to the Slovak fauna (1 species from the genus Woodiphora and 23 species from the genus Megaselia). As a result, the total number of Phoridae species documented in Slovakia has increased to 254.
