405. Peckia Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830: 335 View in CoL .

ORIGINALLY INCLUDED SPECIES: Peckia imperialis Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 ; Peckia lamanensis Robineau- Desvoidy, 1830; Peckia aterrima Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 ; Peckia plumipes Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 ; Peckia lanipes Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 .

TYPE SPECIES: Peckia imperialis Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 , by subsequent designation ( Coquillett, 1910: 585).

CURRENT STATUS: Valid genus and subgenus [teste Pape (1996: 273)].

FAMILY: SARCOPHAGIDAE .

REMARKS: The type species has been listed as a junior synonym of Sarcophaga praeceps Wiedemann, 1830 in previous catalogs and works, but this is incorrect. Robineau-Desvoidy’s 1830 paper came out on 6 June while Wiedemann’s 1830 paper came out less than three months later in September [see References in this paper for dating of the former and Evenhuis (1997: 822) for dating of the latter]. The name Peckia imperialis Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 appears to fulfill the requirements for a nomen oblitum, but as we do not see Sarcophaga praeceps Wiedemann, 1830 fulfilling the conditions for a nomen protectum, we are following strict priority.
