Brucetriphora Beu, 2004 [unnecessary replacement name]

Original reference. Beu 2004: 211.

Type species. Tetraphora mapoonensis Laseron 1958, by typification of the replaced name.

Remarks. Gender: feminine. Brucetriphora was introduced as a replacement name for Tetraphora Laseron, 1958, because of the homonymy with Tetraphora Philippi, 1865 ( Diptera, see Philippi 1865: 630). However, Costatophora B.A. Marshall 1994 had been introduced as a subgenus of Tetraphora Laseron, 1958 and remains valid as a replacement name for Tetraphora Laseron, 1958 (ICZN 1999, article 23.3.5), therefore Brucetriphora is an unnecessary replacement name and invalid.
