Diptera De Geer nomen oblitum nomen protectum Nemotelus Pandivirilia Thereva stiletto fly

Abstract

An overlooked De Geer name, Nemotelus flavipes De Geer, 1776 has been identified as synonymous with Pandivirilia eximia (Meigen, 1820), a name in use for a species of stiletto fly (Diptera: Therevidae). The type specimen has been lost, and this synonymy is based on the original description and associated figures provided by De Geer. Nemotelus flavipes De Geer, 1776, is a nomen oblitum and Thereva eximia Meigen, 1820 is a herein recognized as a nomen protectum in accordance with Article 23.9.2 of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature, which maintains prevailing name usage for the species Pandivirilia eximia (Meigen, 1820).
