Pipunculus monticola Schummel, 1837 View in CoL nomen dubium

Pipunculus monticola Schummel, 1837: 86 View in CoL .

The original description is based on a single specimen (sex unknown) collected on 20th July at “Wölfelsgrunde der Grafschaft Glatz” (nowadays Poland, Powiat Kłodzki, Międzygórze) by Schummel. Later, P. monticola View in CoL was synonymized with P. v a r i p e s by Becker (1921: 156), who does not seem to have studied the holotype. After Schummel’s death in 1848, his collection, which suffered from pests, was divided in 1849, partly through auction ( Groll 2006). At present, it is not clear where the Diptera went to, the Hymenoptera being located at the DEI for example. The holotype of P. monticola View in CoL is presumably lost and the name has therefore to be regarded as a nomen dubium at present. From the brief description, the identity of the specimen cannot be established.
