Type species: Musca carnaria Linnaeus, 1758, by subsequent designation of Partington (1837 : 607). Magnicauda Wei, 2005: 405. Type species: Magnicauda linjiangensis Wei, 2005, by original designation. Syn. nov. Maginicauda : Wei (2005 : 409). Incorrect original spelling of Magnicauda , by First Reviser action in the present paper. Leigongshanophaga Lehrer & Wei, 2010: 8. Type species: Sarcophaga catoptosa Wei & Yang, 2007 [= Sarcophaga suthep Pape & Baenziger , 2003], by original designation. Syn. nov. For other synonyms, see Pape (1996) . Remarks. Verves and Khrokalo (2020 : 204) proposed Leigongshanophaga Lehrer & Wei, 2010 as a new synonym of the valid genus Rosellea Rohdendorf, 1937, but Xue et al. (2011 : 320) proposed the same earlier. As argued below, we consider Sarcophaga catoptosa Wei & Yang, 2007, which is the type species of Leigongshanophaga Lehrer & Wei, 2010, to be a synonym of Sarcophaga suthep Pape & Baenziger , 2003, syn. nov., and we follow Wang et al. (2019) in treating this species in Sarcophaga subgenus Cornexcisia Fan & Kano, 2000.
