Treatment

73. Mutiloptera Coquillett, 1908b: 147 View in CoL .

ORIGINALLY INCLUDED SPECIES: Mutiloptera apicalis Coquillett, 1908b .

TYPE SPECIES: Mutiloptera apicalis Coquillett, 1908b [preoccupied by Geomyza apicalis Meigen, 1830 ; = Mutiloptera coquilletti Hendel, 1917 ], by original designation.

CURRENT STATUS: Junior synonym of Geomyza Fallén, 1810 [ teste Poole (1996: 203)].

FAMILY: OPOMYZIDAE .

[ Myiobia View in CoL ] Coquillett, 1895i: 105 [ 1895m: 313].

CURRENT STATUS: Incorrect subsequent spelling of Myobia Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 or subsequent usage of “ Myiobia ” by Gistel (1856).

FAMILY: TACHINIDAE .

REMARKS: Criteria to make this name available as an emendation were not found to be fulfilled in these works. The earliest mention of Myobia Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 I have found in this study using the spelling “ Myiobia ” is by Gistel (1856: 324) as an incorrect subsequent spelling [ teste this work].

[ Myiolepta View in CoL ] Coquillett, 1900i: 434 [ 1904c: 25; 1904i: 48].

CURRENT STATUS: Incorrect subsequent spelling of Myolepta Newman, 1838 View in CoL or subsequent usage of Myiolepta Rondani, 1868 .

FAMILY: SYRPHIDAE .

REMARKS: Criteria to make this name available as an emendation were not found to be fulfilled in these works. The earliest mention of Myolepta Newman, 1838 using the spelling “ Myiolepta ” is Myiolepta Rondani (1868: 564) as an unjustified emendation [ teste O’Hara et al. (2011: 124) ].
