Stylogaster papaveroi Prado, 1969: 10 (lapsus, correct generic combination given on pp. 1, 6, 7, 9, 12, 13, 23). Syringogaster rufa View in CoL auctt., nec Cresson, 1912: Papavero, 1964 (in part).

This species remains known only from the type material collected in the states of Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo, Brazil, and (according to Prado, 1969) deposited in the Museu de Zoologia, São Paulo and the Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, Rio de Janeiro. We have thus far been unable to examine any of these types, but Prado (1969) provided extensive figures including both male and female genitalia. As was already pointed out by Prado (1969) the species is closely related to S. lanei View in CoL . Syringogaster papaveroi View in CoL differs from both S. lanei View in CoL and the similar S. dactylopleura View in CoL by the presence of ocellar bristles, and from other species in the rufa View in CoL -group by the presence of anteroventral spines on the fore femur.

TYPE MATERIAL (not examined): Holotype ♂ and paratype ♀ ( MZSP): BRAZIL. São Paulo, Barueri, 22.i.1966, K. Lenko. Other paratypes: same locality but different dates (3♂, 19♀, MZSP); Rio de Janeiro, Angra dos Reis, Japuhyba (2♂, 1♀, FIOC); Guanabara, Recreio dos Bandeirantes (1♀, FIOC); São Paulo, Osasco (1♂, 1♀, FIOC).
