punctipennis Macquart, 1851 View in CoL , Coenosia
Coenosia punctipennis Macquart, 1851b: 243 ( 1851d: 270) View in CoL , pl. 24, fig. 16. Lectotype ♂, “de Java. M. Bigot.” (Java), by present designation, in OUMNH.
MATERIAL. — There is 1 ♂ syntype in the Bigot collection in OUMNH. It is in very poor condition, as was noted by Stein (1907b: 285): head, abdomen, left wing, left foreleg and both hind legs missing, and right wing torn. It is labelled by Macquart “ Coenosia / punctipennis / ♂. Macq. n. sp.” and stands over Bigot’s drawer label “ C. punctipennis . ♂ / Java. Macq.”. I have labelled it and designate it herewith as lectotype.
CURRENT IDENTITY. — What remains of this specimen can be easily recognized as a ♂ of the genus Atherigona Rondani, 1856 , subgenus Acritochaeta Grimshaw, 1901 ( Pont 1977b: 492; Pont & Magpayo 1995: 38): forefemur with a dorsal preapical excavation, wing-tip with a dark spot between the tips of veins R 2 + 3 and R 4 + 5, and foretarsomeres 1-4 with fringes of anteroventral and posteroventral setulae.
