Forcipomyia (Lepidohelea) varipennis Wirth and Williams View in CoL

Forcipomyia varipennis Wirth and Williams, 1957: 8 ( Bermuda) View in CoL .

Forcipomyia (Forcipomyia) varipennis: Wirth 1965: 126 View in CoL (in Nearctic catalog; distribution).

Forcipomyia (Lepidohelea) varipennis: Wirth and Spinelli 1993b: 630 View in CoL (Florida records; redescription); Borkent and Grogan 2009: 8 (in Nearctic catalog; distribution).

Discussion. The type series of this primarily Neotropical species included specimens from Bermuda, Puerto Rico, Guatemala and Texas, and Wirth and Spinelli (1993b) provided the first records from Florida. However, Wirth and Spinelli (1993b) noted that paratypes from Cameron Co., Texas and Guatemala were misidentified, and, they designated the Cameron Co. female and other specimens from that state as paratypes of their new species, F. (Lepidohelea) eadsi .
