nigrifrons Macquart, 1835 View in CoL , Pegomyia
Pegomyia nigrifrons Macquart, 1835: 353 View in CoL . Syntype (s) ♀ (♀), “de France ” ( France), not in MNHN or MHNL, and presumed destroyed.
MATERIAL. — Described from an unspecified number of ♀♀. No syntypes have been located.
CURRENT IDENTITY. — Bezzi & Stein (1907: 705), Hennig (1974a: 682) and Dely-Draskovits (1993: 89)
have listed this as an unrecognized species of Pegomya Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 . However, as suggested to me by Dr V. Michelsen (pers. comm.), the meagre description and the small size fit Pegomya rufina (Fallén, 1825) , a species not dealt with by Macquart, and Pegomyia nigrifrons is herewith formally synonymized with Pegomya rufina (Fallén, 1825) (n. syn.).
