Notes.
It was indicated by
Chandler (2004a)
that the
type
specimen of
Zygomyia simplex
(in
NMBA
) had been examined and found to be conspecific with
Z. valida
; this specimen was a male rather than a female as stated in the original description. As this has only been reported on line, this synonymy is formally established here.
