Erynnia antennata Rondani, 1861 View in CoL

ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: 1861e: 108 (key), 109 (description).

TYPE LOCALITY: “ in planitie parmensi [ Parmese plains ( Italy)]” .

TYPE MATERIAL: 2 ♀♀ (one of them is surely the holotype but is not labeled as such; one missing right mid-leg) ( MZUF: Box 16) with the following labels: Erynnia Desv. / antennata Rndn. / 848.

CURRENT STATUS: valid species, as Erynniopsis antennata ( Herting & Dely-Draskovits 1993: 167, Pape et al. 1995: 18, Cerretti 2010: 151, O’Hara et al. 2020: 220).

REMARKS: Rondani (1861e: 109) described Erynnia antennata from a single female: “ Unicam foeminam inveni [I collected a single female]”. There are two females without any label indicating their type status in the MZUF: we are unable to single out the one upon which Rondani based his description. We leave the recognition of the holotype to a future specialist .
