REMARKS:
Rondani (1865a: 133)
described
Criorhyna picciolii
from just the male sex, without specifying either the
number
or the length of the specimens received from F.M. Piccioli. We found
one syntype
in this study. Rondani described this nominal species under the generic name
Criorhyna
, which is an “unjustified emendation of
Criorhina
Meigen, 1822
” (
O’Hara
et al.
2011: 65
).
