REMARKS: Rondani (1863: 41) described Callobata brasiliana , without specifying the number, the sex or the length of the specimens, from material received from V. Ghiliani. Rondani (1863: 41, 94) named the genus as “ Callobata ”, which is an “incorrect subsequent spelling of Calobata Meigen, 1803 ” ( O’Hara et al. 2011: 44). Costa (1866: 35) listed a single MZUN specimen numbered “749”. We also found one syntype in this study.
