Planetella winnertzi ( Kieffer, 1898)

Hormomyia winnertzi Kieffer, 1898: 26 . Type locality: Germany.

Type material. Lost (see GAGN Ḗ & JAsCHHOF 2021).

Comments. In the original publication, only short remarks are included, without proper description. For example, ‘ H. ampla and H. funesta remain dubious like almost all the species described by Walker and it is not possible to recognize them’. In the same paper, also Planetella granifex (as Pseudhormomyia granifex ) and P. cornifex (as Hormomyia cornifex ) were described. This species was included in the key by RȖBsAAMEN (1917) among the species with uninodal flagellomeres. Apparently, he referred to females only, as in the case of P. rosenhaueri (see above), because no species of Planetella currently known has uninodal flagellomeres in the males. Unrecognized species.
