geniculata Macquart, 1846 View in CoL , Stomoxys

Stomoxys geniculata Macquart, 1846a: 320 ( 1846b: 192) . Lectotype ♀, “du Brésil. Collection de M. Bigot.” ( Brazil), by designation of Pont (1990: 165), in BMNH.

MATERIAL. — There is 1 ♀ syntype in that part of the Bigot collection now in the BMNH. It was also studied by Brauer (1899: 517). It is very mouldy. It is labelled by Macquart “ Stomoxys / geniculata. ♀ / Macq. n. sp.”, and stands over a Bigot drawer label reading “ S. geniculata . ♀ / Brazil. Macq.”. It was listed as holotype by Pont (1990: 165), and this statement has to be interpreted as lectotype designation by inference.

CURRENT IDENTITY. — Despite its poor condition, it can be recognized as a specimen of Stomoxys calcitrans (Linnaeus, 1758) , a synonymy first given by Stein (1919: 102).
