TYPE
SPECIES
:
Tachina lentis
Meigen, 1824
(as “
Masicera senilis
: Meig.
”) [=
Tachina spathulata
Fallén, 1820
], by monotypy.
CURRENT STATUS: Junior synonym of
Ramonda
Robineau-Desvoidy, 1863
(subgenus of
Periscepsia
Gistel, 1848
) [

FAMILY:
TACHINIDAE
.
REMARKS:
Robineau-Desvoidy (1863a: 836)
wrote the following concerning the
type
species: “
D’après l’étiquette du Muséum
,
cette espèce est originaire d’ALLEMAGNE. Meigen en avait d’abord fait une
MASICERA
; depuis il la rapporta parmi les CLISTES
,
ainsi que le prouve l’étiquette actuelle du Muséum
,
vérifiée en 1853
”. It appears Robineau-Desvoidy misread “lentis” as “senilis” on the handwritten label of the specimen upon which he based the description [see
Herting (1984: 191
, note 112)]. Herting & Dely- Draskovits (1993: 377) treated
Andrina
as a junior synonym of
Ramonda
Robineau-Desvoidy, 1863
and
O’Hara & Wood (2004: 65)
treated
Ramonda
as a subgenus of
Periscepsia
Gistel, 1848
