Treatment

13. Biomyia Coquillett, 1897b: 10 View in CoL , 81.

CURRENT STATUS: Unjustified emendation of Biomya Rondani, 1856 ; junior synonym of Zaira Robineau- Desvoidy, 1830 [ teste O’Hara & Wood (2004: 111) ].

FAMILY: TACHINIDAE .

REMARKS: Name made available by virtue of the original and changed spellings appearing together in the same work and the changed spelling being adopted.

[ Blepharoptera View in CoL ] Coquillett, 1900i: 457 [ 1904i: 71].

CURRENT STATUS: Incorrect subsequent spelling of Blephariptera Macquart, 1835 View in CoL or subsequent usage of Blepharoptera Agassiz, 1846 .

FAMILY: HELEOMYZIDAE .

REMARKS: Criteria to make this name available as an emendation were not found to be fulfilled in these works. The earliest mention of Blephariptera Macquart, 1835 that I have found in this study using the spelling “ Blepharoptera ” is Blepharoptera Agassiz, 1846 as an unjustified emendation [ teste Evenhuis et al. (2016: 35) ].
