Syrphus bucculatus Rondani 1857

Description

Syrphus bucculatus Rondani, 1857

ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: 1857: 127 (key), 134 (description).

TYPE LOCALITY: “ in planitie agri parmensis [Parmese plains (Italy)]”.

TYPE MATERIAL: 1 ♀, holotype (covered with mold, missing head, right wing and right hind-leg) (MZUF: Box 5): Syrphus Fabr. / bucculatus Rndn., ♀, Parma / 218 / Syrphus venustus Meig., det. P. Láska, 1970.

CURRENT STATUS: junior synonym of Eupeodes luniger (Peck 1988: 35, Belcari et al. 1995a: 7); valid species, as Eupeodes bucculatus (Mazánek et al. 1998: 29).

REMARKS: Rondani (1857: 134) described Syrphus bucculatus from a single female: “ foem. … exemplar typicum a me lectum [female … typical specimen collected by me]”. The MZUF also contains an additional two males (non-types) numbered “218”. Pavel Láska examined the MZUF type material and incorrectly labeled one of the two males as a syntype. Mazánek et al. (1998: 32) incorrectly designated one of the two males as a lectotype.
