Catalog of the Diptera types described by Camillo Rondani Author Sforzi, Alessandra 0000-0001-6974-7741 alessandra.sforzi@libero.it Author Sommaggio, Daniele 0000-0001-6974-7741 alessandra.sforzi@libero.it text Zootaxa 2021 2021-06-17 4989 1 1 438 journal article 10.11646/zootaxa.4989.1.1 1175-5326 4980621 89C63841-3CF4-491D-8C73-BEF7DCB18FB5 Tabanidae This worldwide family of Orthorrhapha flies contains almost 4,500 species ( Marshall 2012 , Evenhuis & Pape 2020 ). Rondani (1848b , 1850 c , 1851, 1863 , 1868b , 1873f, 1875c) described 19 Neotropical, 13 Oriental , two Nearctic and one Palaearctic nominal species: 17 are currently considered as valid and 18 are synonyms ( Fairchild 1971 , Stone 1975 , Wilkerson & Fairchild 1983 , Chvála 1988, Coscarón & Papavero 2009 ). Rondani (1850 c , 1863) proposed two new replacement names and one substitute name for nominal species previously described and named by other authors. Philip (1965a) , Coscarón & Philip (1967) examined the MZUN and MZUF Neotropical material without publishing any lectotype designation. Ricardo (1911) examined the MSNG type material without publishing any lectotype designation. Here, we designate a lectotype for Chrysops alter Rondani, 1875 , Chrysops unizonatus Rondani, 1875 , Tabanus dives Rondani, 1875 , Tabanus fulvissimus Rondani, 1875 , Tabanus ignobilis Rondani, 1875 , Tabanus justorius Rondani, 1875 . O’Hara et al. (2011: 213) incorrectly attributed two species to Rondani. Costa (1866: 39) listed one unpublished Rondani name ( nomen nudum ). Except for the type material of two South American species, which has been destroyed ( Fairchild 1971 , Leonardi et al . 1995 , Mazzotti 2011 ), the type material has been recovered for all nominal species and is distributed among the MSNG (14), MZUF (11), MZUN (ten) and MRSN (two).
