Lasiophthicus coronatus Rondani, 1857 View in CoL

ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: 1857: 139 (key), 143 (description).

TYPE LOCALITY: “ in collibus ditionis parmensis [ Parmese hills ( Italy)]” .

TYPE MATERIAL: 1 ♀, holotype ( MZUF: Box 5): Lasiophticus [sic!] Rnd. / coronatus Rnd. , ♀, Apenn. [= Apennines] / 237 .

CURRENT STATUS: junior synonym of Dasysyrphus albostriaus ( Fallén, 1817) ( Peck 1988: 14, Belcari et al. 1995a: 6); valid species, as Epistrophella coronata ( Doczkal & Vujić 1998: 52) View in CoL .

REMARKS: Rondani (1857: 143) described Lasiophthicus coronatus from just the female sex, without specifying the exact number of specimens, but giving a single measurement of length: “ feminam tantum legi [I collected the female only]”. We found one syntype in this study. Doczkal & Vujić (1998: 52) considered the single MZUF female as the holotype. Rondani described this nominal species under the generic name Lasiophthicus , which is an “unjustified emendation of Lasiopthicus Rondani, 1845 ” ( O’Hara et al. 2011: 102).
