REMARKS:
Rondani (1863: 12)
described
Syrphus decemmaculatus
from just the female sex, without specifying the exact
number
of specimens, but giving a single measurement of length, from material received from R.A. Philippi, to whom he attributed the species name.
Costa
(1866: 32)
listed a single MZUN specimen (as
Syrphus decemmaculatus
Phil. R.
) numbered “647”. We also found
one syntype
in this study.
