Dasipogon bombimorpha Rondani, 1851 View in CoL

ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: 1851: 368.

TYPE LOCALITY: “ regioni equatoriali dell’America, principalmente nelle vicinanze del Rio Napo [ Equatorial regions of ( South ) America, mainly in the vicinity of Napo River]” ( Rondani 1851: 357) .

TYPE MATERIAL: not found in this study.

CURRENT STATUS: valid species, as Lastaurus bombimorpha ( Martin & Papavero 1970: 29) View in CoL ; junior synonym of Lastaurus fallax ( Macquart, 1846) ( Papavero 2009: 73) View in CoL .

REMARKS: Rondani (1851: 368) described Dasipogon bombimorpha from just the female sex, giving a single measurement of length, from material collected by Osculati (1850) during his journey through equatorial South America. Osculati (1850: 240) named but did not describe the species. Leonardi et al. (1995: 148) and Mazzotti (2011: 166) reported the Osculati collection in Milan as destroyed. We also did not find any material during this study. Rondani described this nominal species under the generic name Dasipogon , which is a misspelling of Dasypogon Meigen, 1803 or subsequent usage of Dasipogon Dufour, 1833 ( O’Hara et al. 2011: 71).
