TYPE LOCALITY: “ in collibus ditionis parmensis [ Parmese hills ( Italy )]” . TYPE MATERIAL: 1 ♀ , syntype ( MZUF : Box 14): Masicera Macq. / caudigera Rnd. / 745.

REMARKS: Rondani (1861e: 23) described Masicera caudigera from just the female sex, without specifying the exact number of specimens, but giving a single measurement of length: “ Semel capta foemina [Collected the female once]”. In his redescription Rondani (1862a: 48) stated: “ foeminas aliquas tantum inveni [I found only some females]”. Herting (1969: 190) reported a female in the MZUF. We also found one female syntype in the MZUF.
