Sophia Robineau-Desvoidy , 1830 : 317 . ORIGINALLY INCLUDED SPECIES: Sophia pellucida Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 ; Sophia punctata Robineau- Desvoidy, 1830; Sophia gagatea Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 ; Sophia filipes Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 . TYPE SPECIES : Sophia filipes Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 , by subsequent designation ( Townsend, 1916: 9 ). CURRENT STATUS: Valid genus [ teste Guimarães (1971: 112) ]. FAMILY: TACHINIDAE . REMARKS: Lamarck (1816) listed the Péron manuscript name “ Sophia ” in synonymy [under Calliantra Péron & Lesueur, 1810] as did Blainville (1830) [under Beroe Gronovius, 1760 ], and the name was not made available before 1961 so it is unavailable and does not enter into homonymy with Sophia Robineau- Desvoidy, 1830. Guimarães (1971: 112) treated Sophia as a valid genus but left its type species, Sophia filipes , as “Unrecognized”.
