.
CURRENT STATUS: Incorrect subsequent spelling of
Sphaerophoria
Le Peletier & Serville, 1828
.
FAMILY:
SYRPHIDAE
.
REMARKS: The earliest mention of
Sphaerophoria
Le Peletier & Serville, 1828
using the spelling “
Spaerophoria
” that we have found in this study is in
Zetterstedt (1852: 4514)
, as an incorrect subsequent spelling. In
Rondani (1856)
this is either an incorrect subsequent spelling or unjustified emendation (by virtue of similar spelling changes in two or more names from “ph” to “p” in the same work). We thus follow ICZN
Code
Article 33.5 in treating this spelling in
Rondani (1856)
as an incorrect subsequent spelling.
