ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: 1866a: 156 (key), 163 (description).

TYPE LOCALITY: “ Melitense [ Malta]” .

TYPE MATERIAL: 1 ♀, holotype ( MZUF: Box 23): Chorthophila Mcq. / effodiens Rnd. , ♀, Melita / 1209 .

REMARKS: Rondani (1866a: 163) described Chorthophila effodiens from a single female: “(Foem.) … Unicum exemplar … a clar. Schembri obtinui [(Female) … I obtained a single specimen … from Mr. Schembri]”. Hennig (1966: 19) reported one female type in the MZUF. Rondani described this nominal species under the generic name Chorthophila , which is an “unjustified emendation of Chortophila Macquart, 1835 ” ( O’Hara et al. 2011: 57).
