Sargus melleus Rondani, 1848 View in CoL
ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: 1848b: 104.
TYPE LOCALITY: “ Brasile [ Brazil]” ( Rondani 1848b: 63); [Belem (Pará), Brazil] ( Papavero 1973: 343). See Remarks.
TYPE MATERIAL: 1 ♀, syntype ( MZUN: Box Coll. entomol. extra-europea, Fam. Stratiomidei - Gen. Clitellaria a Sternobrithes ): Sargus meleus [sic!] Rnd., Brasile / M. Zool. N° 10986.
CURRENT STATUS: valid species ( James 1973: 19, Woodley 2001: 226).
REMARKS: Rondani (1848b: 104) described Sargus melleus from just the female sex, without specifying the exact number of specimens, but giving a single measurement of length, from material collected in South America by V. Ghiliani. Costa (1866: 38) listed a single MZUN specimen (as S. meleus [sic!]) numbered “871”. We also found one syntype in this study. Although Rondani (1848b: 63) only gave the type locality as “ Brasile ”, Papavero (1973: 343) gave a more accurate type locality based on a note in Spinola (1853) that said all specimens collected by Ghiliani in 1846 were collected in Belem, Pará, Brazil.
