parmensi
[
Parmese mountains
(
Italy

.

CURRENT STATUS: junior synonym of
Erycilla ferruginea
(
Meigen, 1824
) (
Herting & Dely-Draskovits 1993: 239
)
.
REMARKS:
Rondani (1859b: 132)
described both sexes of
Exorista rutilla
without specifying the exact
number
of specimens and not giving a range of lengths: “
Rarissimo lectus uterque sexus
[Rarely collected both sexes]”.
Herting (1969: 200)
stated that this nominal species “is not represented in the Florence collection”. We were unable to locate any
type
material of this nominal species in our study. The MRSN contains
three females
from “
Torino
” [Turin], which is not the
type
locality.
