Leucopis palliditarsis Rondani 1875

Leucopis palliditarsis Rondani, 1875 ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: 1875a: 262 (key), 266 (description). TYPE LOCALITY: “ in collibus parmensibus [Parmese hills (Italy)]”. TYPE MATERIAL: 1 ♀, lectotype (dissected) (MZUF: Box 35): Leucopis Mgn / palliditarsis Rondani / 1817 / Holotypus Leucopis (Leucopis) palliditarsis Rondani, det. G. Morge, Ex. 14 / Lectotypus ♀ Leucopomyia palliditarsis (Rondani, 1874), A. Raspi det. CURRENT STATUS: valid species (Tanasijtshuk 1984: 228, Nartshuk et al. 1995: 7, Raspi & Benelli 2016: 209). REMARKS: Rondani (1875a: 266) described Leucopis palliditarsis without specifying either the number or the sex of the specimens. Günter Morge labeled the specimen in the MZUF as the holotype but, as far as we know, never indicated this specimen as the holotype in any of his publications on Chamaemyiidae (Morge 1959a, 1962a, 1962b) and therefore did not publish a lectotype designation (I.C.Z.N. 1999: Article 74.5). Raspi & Benelli (2016: 209) designated a lectotype (♀).Published as part of Sforzi, Alessandra & Sommaggio, Daniele, 2021, Catalog of the Diptera types described by Camillo Rondani, pp. 1-438 in Zootaxa 4989 (1) on page 87, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4989.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/498062
