REMARKS:
Rondani (1866a: 148)
described
Anthomyia dedecorata
from at least
two males
: “
Bis tantum marem inveni
[I collected the male only twice]”. We found just
one male
in the MZUF, as did
Hennig (1967c: 198)
, the latter who incorrectly considered it as the
holotype
but did not explicitly select a particular specimen from the type series to serve as the name-bearing type and therefore did not publish a
lectotype
designation (I.C.Z.N. 1999: Article 74.5).
