REMARKS:
Rondani (1863: 51)
described
Hyrmoneura fusca
,
without specifying either the number or the sex of the specimens, but giving a single measurement of length, from material received from R.A. Philippi, to whom he attributed the species name.
Costa
(1866: 36)
listed a single MZUN specimen (as
Hirmoneura
[
sic
!]
fusca
Phil.
) numbered “820”. Rondani described this nominal species under the generic name
Hyrmoneura
, which is an “unjustified emendation of
Hirmoneura
Meigen
” (
O’Hara
et al.
2011: 100
).
