REMARKS: Loew (1862c: 109) described
Tephritis stictica
from a specimen received from Dufour under the name
Tephritis diotidis
.
Rondani (1871b: 12)
suggested using the new substitute name
Tephritis diotidis
because of the information it gave about the larval biology.
Tephritis diotidis
was always considered as a synonym of
Tephritis stictica
Loew, 1862
(
Becker 1905: 141
,
Hendel 1927: 195
,
Foote 1984: 134
,
Norrbom
et al
. 1999: 219
). The
type
material for
Tephritis diotidis
will be the same as for the name it was proposed to replace, i. e.,
Tephritis stictica
.
