(1965) and Robinson (1970b); given generic status by Bickel (1998b). COELINIUM Parent, 1939: 148 .

REFERENCE: Naglis (2002; key to world species). lateralis (Say), 1829 –1830: 169 (also in LeConte, 1859: 362) ( Medeterus ); listed under Neurigona in Foote et al. (1965) and Poole (1996). NT designated by Naglis (2002: 490, 492) in USNM. Type locality: USA: IN, Lafayette. DISTRIBUTION: CO, NE, SD, MB, IA, ON, IL, IN, MI, QC, NH, MA, DC, NC, FL [ Robinson (1964); Harmston & Rapp (1983); Vockeroth (personal commun.)]. superbiens (Loew), 1861a: 76 ( Saucropus ). ST in MCZ. Type locality: USA: FL. gracilipes Aldrich, 1894: 151 ; listed under Neurigona in Foote et al. (1965) and Poole (1996). ST in USNM (5), SEMC (4).

Genus NEURIGONA Rondani, 1856

NEURIGONA Rondani, 1856: 142 . Type species: Musca quadrifasciata Fabricius [Palearctic], by original designation.

SAUCROPUS Loew, 1857a: 41 . Type species: Musca quadrifasciata Fabricius , automatic. Unjustified n. name for Neurigona Rondani, 1856 .

NEUROGONA Oldenberg, 1904: 80 . Type species: Musca quadrifasciata Fabricius , automatic. Unjustified emendation.

NEUROGONIA , error by Van Duzee (1925e: 179).

NEUROGONUS , error listed in Bickel & Dyte (1989).

NOTES: Neurigona is known from all realms and like many members of the Sciapodinae and Medeterinae , occurs on tree trunks and low vegetation. The Nearctic Neurigona fauna is very diverse compared to that of the Palearctic and Neotropics, although the latter undoubtedly contains a large number of undescribed species ( Naglis, 2003b).
