TYPE SPECIES: Musca carnaria Linnaeus, 1758 , by subsequent designation ( Coquillett, 1910: 573) .

CURRENT STATUS: Junior synonym of Sarcophaga Meigen, 1826 sensu stricto [teste Pape (1996: 387)].

FAMILY: SARCOPHAGIDAE .

REMARKS: Verves (1986: 180) indicated incorrectly that Robineau-Desvoidy (1830: 349) designated Myophora fuliginosa Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 as type species. An examination of that work shows that no designation was made anywhere by Robineau-Desvoidy. The earliest valid designation of an included species is of Musca carnaria Linnaeus, 1758 by Coquillett (1910: 573).

EMENDATIONS: Myiophora Agassiz, 1846b: 242 (unjustified); Myiophora Bezzi & Stein, 1907: 469 , n. syn.

[Myophore] Robineau-Desvoidy MS name ( Blainville et al., 1826: 11).

CURRENT STATUS: Unavailable name; suppressed by action of I.C.Z.N. (1990: 162 [Opinion 1601]); treated under Sarcophaga Meigen, 1826 sensu stricto [teste this work].

REMARKS: This was likely a typesetter’s error in misreading the handwriting of what was intended to be Myophora .

FAMILY: SARCOPHAGIDAE .
