28. Wyeomyia luciae Senevet, Chabelard & Abonnenc, 1942: 343 (M, P, L).

Holotype M (with associated larval and pupal exuviae): Port Inini, [Tonnegrande River], French Guiana (MNHP *); coll. E. Abonnenc; 18 Aug. 1939; no. M.1552.

Wyeomyia luciae was synonymized with Wy. chalcocephala Dyar & Knab by Lane (1951: 335). This synonymy was questioned by Belkin (1968: 40) but retained in A catalog of the mosquitoes of the world (Knight & Stone 1977: 328). The holotype is wrongly numbered M. 1553 in the original publication (Belkin 1968: 40). The holotype, originally deposited in the LPFM, was found in the MNHP by Dégallier & Claustre (1980: 144).
