Eristalomya fulvitarsis Rondani, 1863

ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: 1863: 6.

TYPE LOCALITY: “ De la Colombie [ Colombia]” ( Macquart 1855a: 89) [type locality for Eristalis rufitarsis Macquart, 1855 ] .

TYPE MATERIAL: see Remarks.

CURRENT STATUS: valid species, as Palpada fulvitarsis ( Thompson et al. 1976: 105) .

REMARKS: Macquart (1842: 58, 1855a: 89) described two different species under the same name Eristalis rufitarsis . Consequently, Rondani (1863: 6) proposed the new replacement name Eristalomya fulvitarsis for Eristalomyia rufitarsis Macquart, 1855 . The type material for Eristalomya fulvitarsis will be the same as for the name it was proposed to replace, i. e., Eristalomyia rufitarsis Macquart, 1855 . There is no type of this latter species in the MHNL (O. Boilly, pers. comm., May 2019), MNHN (Muséum national d’Histoire naturelle 2020), or OUMNH (Z. Simmons, pers. comm., May 2019), where Macquart’s collection is preserved.
