TYPE LOCALITY: “ in agro parmensi … Dania … Germania [ Parmese territory ( Italy ) … Denmark … Germany ]” . TYPE MATERIAL: 1 ♂ , syntype (dirty) ( MZUF : Box 11): Nemorea Desv. / nupta Rnd. / 516; 1 ♂ , syntype ( MSNPV : Box 97): Nemorea nupta Rnd. , 380, ♂ , Parma . CURRENT STATUS: junior synonym of Nemoraea pellucida ( Meigen, 1824 ) ( Herting & Dely-Draskovits 1993: 283 ) . REMARKS: Rondani (1859b: 73) described both sexes of Nemorea nupta sex without specifying either the number or the length of the specimens: “ Maris unum , et foeminae specimina duo a me lecta fuerunt …, sed uterque sexus in posterum a Dania missus, … a Clar. Staegero, et a Germania a Doct. Schinero [ one male and two female specimens were collected by me …, but subsequently both sexes were sent to me by Mr. Staeger from Denmark and by Dr. Schiner from Germany ]”. We found two male syntypes in this study. The female type has presumably been lost. Rondani described this nominal species under the generic name “ Nemorea ”, which is an “incorrect subsequent spelling of Nemoraea Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 or subsequent usage of Nemorea Macquart, 1834 ” ( O’Hara et al. 2011: 126 ).
