REMARKS: Rondani (1848a: 435) described Leucopis aphidiperda without specifying the number, the sex or the length of the specimens. Morge (1962b: 436) designated a lectotype (♂) but did not mention an additional male and female in the MZUF (both of these additional specimens are paralectotypes). The MZUF specimens of Leucopis aphidiperda and Leucopis aphidivora are both numbered “1812”.
