:

.
ORIGINALLY INCLUDED SPECIES:
Acidia guerini
Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830
;
Tephritis cognata
Wiedemann, 1817
(as “
Tephrytis cognata
. Wintheim”).
TYPE
SPECIES
:
Tephritis cognata
Wiedemann, 1817
, by subsequent designation [
Rondani, 1870: 10
(as “
Tripeta cognata
. Mgn.”)].
CURRENT STATUS: Valid genus [
teste
Norrbom
et al
. (1999: 67)
].
FAMILY:
TEPHRITIDAE
.
REMARKS:
White (1986: 146)
assumed that the
type
species designated by
Rondani (1870: 10)
of “
Tripeta cognata
. Mgn.” was a misidentification; and therefore considered the earliest designation not based on a misidentification to be that of
Tephritis cognata
Wiedemann
by
Hendel (1914a: 85)
.
White’s (1986)
assumption was incorrect and Rondani’s designation, although getting the authorship incorrect, is valid under the ICZN
Code
.
