TYPE MATERIAL: 1 ♂, lectotype (terminalia dissected and glued to a cardboard stage pinned below specimen) ( MZUF: Box 19): Sarcophaga Mgn / consobrina Bell. / 1035 / S. haemorrhoidalis Meig. ♂ sec. Typ. det. Böttcher / Lectotypus ♂ Sarcophaga consobrina Rnd., T. Pape det., 1986 / Bercaea cruentata (Rnd.) , T. Pape det., 1986.

CURRENT STATUS: junior synonym of Bercaea cruentata ( Meigen, 1826) ( Verves 1986: 160) ; junior synonym of Sarcophaga cruentata Meigen, 1826 ( Pape 1988: 7) View in CoL ; junior synonym of Sarcophaga (Bercaea) africa ( Wiedemann, 1824) ( Pape 1996: 302) View in CoL .

REMARKS: Rondani (1861g: 391) described Sarcophaga consobrina from just the male sex without specifying the exact number of specimens, but giving a single measurement of length, despite there being two specimens in the type series found in this study, from material received from L. Bellardi, to whom he attributed the species name. In his redescription of Sarcophaga consobrina Rondani (1862d: 122) specified the type locality: “ in Pedemontio [in Piedmont]”. Pape (1988: 6) designated a lectotype (♂) and paralectotype (♂) but did not mention an additional OUMNH male (this additional specimen is a paralectotype).
