ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: 1868b: 39.

TYPE LOCALITY: “ Buenos Aires [Buenos Aires ( Argentina)]” .

TYPE MATERIAL: 1 ♀, lectotype ( MZUF: Box 71): Dilophus subaequalis Rnd., Am. Mer. [= South America] / lectotype Bibio subaequalis Rondani , designated by S. Fitzgerald, 1997 / [no identification number].

CURRENT STATUS: valid species ( Hardy 1966a: 6, Fitzgerald 1997: 273).

REMARKS: Rondani (1868b: 39) described Bibio subaequalis from just the female sex, without specifying either the exact number or the length of the specimens, from material received from P. Strobel. Rondani (1868b) indicated the type locality as Buenos Aires ( Argentina) where Strobel taught from 1865–1867, but the specimen itself is labeled “ Am. Mer. ” (= “ America Meridionali ”) [South America]. Fitzgerald (1997: 273) designated a lectotype (♀).
