REMARKS:
Rondani (1864b: 189)
proposed the substitute name
Cecidomyia frumentaria
for
Phytophaga cerealis
Rondani, 1843
without any explanation.
Rondani (1865b: 151
,
1866b: 21
, 23, 1866c: 189) used the name
Cecidomyia frumentaria
instead of
Phytophaga cerealis
.
Arcangeli (1883: 87)
treated
Cecidomyia frumentaria
as a valid species while
Kertész (1903: 222)
,
Skuhravá (1986: 185)
and
Gagné & Solinas (1996: 73)
considered it as a synonym of
Mayetiola destructor
(Say, 1817)
. The
type
material for
Cecidomyia frumentaria
will be the same as for the name it was proposed to replace, i.e.,
Phytophaga cerealis
.
Dahl
et al.
(1995: 29)
incorrectly listed this nominal species as “
frumentosa
” here considered as a subsequent incorrect spelling.
