analis Macquart, 1855 , Pyrellia
Pyrellia analis Macquart, 1855a: 134 ( 1855b: 114) View in CoL , pl. 6, fig. 11. Lectotype ♀, South Africa (not “Nouvelle Hollande, Nouvelle-Adélaïde?”, as stated by Macquart), by designation of Pont (1973b: 284), in BMNH.
MATERIAL. — Macquart described this species from “De la Nouvelle Hollande, Nouvelle-Adélaïde? M. Bigot.” The lectotype and paralectotype from Bigot’s collection, both ♀, are in the BMNH. The lectotype has the left mid leg missing but is otherwise in good condition. It is labelled by Macquart “ Pyrellia / analis / ♀. Macq. / Adélaïde?”.
CURRENT IDENTITY. — I have previously discussed this type ( Pont 1973b: 284), and have shown that it originates from Africa and that Pyrellia analis is a junior synonym of Pyrellina marsya (Walker, 1849) .
