Dasipogon annulitarsis Rondani, 1868

ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: 1868b: 32.

TYPE LOCALITY: “ Santa-Fé et Cordova (a Rio Cuarto ad Rosarium ) [Santa-Fé and Cordoba (from Cuarto River to Rosario) ( Argentina)]” .

TYPE MATERIAL: 1 ♂, syntype ( MZUF: Box 71): Dasipogon anulitarsis Rnd., A. Mer. [= South America] / [no identification number].

CURRENT STATUS: junior synonym of Caenarolia vittata ( Martin & Papavero 1970: 23, Papavero 2009: 68).

REMARKS: Rondani (1868b: 32) described Dasipogon annulitarsis , without specifying the number, the sex or the length of the specimens, from material collected in South America by P. Strobel. We found one syntype in this study. This nominal species was described as “ anulitarsis ”. The spelling “ anulitarsis ” was also used by Lynch- Arribálzaga (1880: 28) but subsequent authors ( Hull 1962: 228, Martin & Papavero 1970: 7, Papavero 2009: 68, O’Hara et al. 2011: 206, Evenhuis & Pape 2020) spelled the name as “ annulitarsis ”. The spelling “ annulitarsis ” is in prevailing usage, and thus considered as correct (I.C.Z.N. 1999: Article 33.3.1). 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).
