The Primary Types of Scathophagidae (Diptera) in the Museum für Naturkunde Berlin, and Senckenberg Deutsches Entomologisches Institut, Germany

摘要

The primary types (holotypes, lectotypes, and syntypes) of the Diptera family Scathophagidae housed in the Museum für Naturkunde der Humboldt-Universit?t zu Berlin and Senckenberg Deutsches Entomologisches Institut, Müncheberg, both in Germany, are revised. 50 species of Scathophagidae are enumerated. The species are listed alphabetically, and the account concludes with a systematic nomenclatural summary. Detailed information is given on the specimens, their labelling and their condition. 28 lectotypes are designated [Acanthocnema latipennis Becker, 1894 (Poland); Amaurosoma articulata Becker, 1894 (Poland); Amaurosoma inermis Becker, 1894 (Latvia or Estonia); Amaurosoma minuta Becker, 1894 (Latvia or Estonia); Amaurosoma nigrifrontata Becker, 1894 (Italy); Amaurosoma nutans Becker, 1894 (Poland); Cochliarium castanipes Becker, 1894 (Switzerland); Cochliarium lasiostoma Becker, 1894 (Switzerland); Cordylura aberrans Becker, 1894 (Sweden); Cordylura bezzii Sack, 1937 (Italy); Cordylura biseta Loew, 1864 (Denmark or Germany); Cordylura dasyprocta Loew, 1864 (Sweden); Cordylura femoralis Loew, 1864 (Austria); Cordylura glaucescens Loew, 1864 (Germany); Cordylura melaleuca Loew, 1873 (Greece); Cordylura melanacra Loew, 1873 (Poland); Cordylura nigriventris Loew, 1864 (Poland); Cordylura opaca Loew, 1864 (Austria); Cordylura picticornis Loew, 1864 (Russia); Cordylura umbrosa Loew, 1873 (Slovakia); Cordylura unicolor Loew, 1864 (Spain); Parallelomma longicornis Hendel, 1913 (Taiwan); Parallelomma media Becker, 1894 (Poland); Pselaphephila loewi Becker, 1894 (Poland); Scatophaga dasythrix Becker, 1894 (Russia); Scatophaga islandica Becker, 1894 (Iceland); Scatophaga mollis Becker, 1894 (Russia); Scatophaga ordinata Becker, 1894 (Switzerland)]. Three new synonyms are established: Amaurosoma nigrifrontata Becker, 1894 is a new junior synonym of Nanna tibiella (Zetterstedt, 1838); Cordylura rubifrontata Becker, 1894 is a new junior synonym of Cordilura aberrans (Becker, 1894); Cordylura unicolor Loew, 1864 is a new junior synonym of Cordilura albipes (Fallén, 1819).
