Cleigastra apicalis ( Meigen, 1826)

Cordylura apicalis Meigen, 1826: 236 . SYNTYPES: J ♀, ‘Beide Geschlechter [= both sexes]’, type locality not given, ‘Aus dem Baumhauerischen Museum, auch von Herrn Wiedemann [= from the Baumhauer’s Museum, also from Mr. Wiedemann]’ (current depository unknown).

Note. The original paper stated: ‘15. Cord. apicalis . Wied. [= Wiedemann]’, but. the text of the original description does not confirm Wiedemann’s authorship. I therefore accept Meigen as the single author of the description (see ICZN 1999:Article 50).

Gonarcticus kerteszi Szilády. Synonymized by SZILÁDY (1926: 180).

Note. The reference and year of the original description are still unknown.According to L. Papp (2006, pers. comm.), it is not sure at all Szilády had ever described such a species and possibly labelled specimen(s) as such only.
