Evenhuis, Neal L. & Pape, Thomas, 2017, Battling the un-dead: the status of the Diptera genus-group names originally proposed in Johann Wilhelm Meigen’s 1800 pamphlet, Zootaxa 4275 (1), pp. 1-74 : 33-34

21. Eulalia

[ Eulalia ] Meigen, 1800: 21.

CURRENT STATUS: Unavailable name; work suppressed for the purposes of zoological nomenclature by action of I.C.Z.N. (1963: 339 [Opinion 678]); treated under Odontomyia Meigen, 1803 [teste Woodley (2001: 267)].

Eulalia Hendel, 1903: 58 .

ORIGINALLY INCLUDED SPECIES: None.

FIRST INCLUDED SPECIES: Stratiomys furcata Fabricius, 1794 ; Stratiomys tigrina Fabricius, 1775 ; Musca hydroleon Linnaeus, 1758 [as “ hydroleon F.”] (in Hendel 1908: 52).

TYPE SPECIES: Musca hydroleon Linnaeus, 1758 , by subsequent designation ( Coquillett 1910a: 541).

CURRENT STATUS: Preoccupied by Eulalia Savigny, 1822 ; junior synonym of Odontomyia Meigen, 1803 . New Synonymy.

FAMILY: STRATIOMYIDAE .

REMARKS: Eulalia was originally proposed by Meigen (1800: 21) without included species and later made unavailable by the suppression of the entire work for the purposes of zoological nomenclature by action of the I.C.Z.N. (1963: 339 [Opinion 678]). Hendel (1903: 58) treated Eulalia in synonymy with Odontomyia Meigen, 1803 , but did not include any species. Hendel (1908: 52) was the first after Meigen (1800) to give characters to differentiate the taxon (reproducing Meigen’s characters) and to treat Eulalia as valid, which makes the name available from Hendel (1903). Hendel (1908) included three species: Stratiomys furcata Fabricius, 1794 , Stratiomys tigrina Fabricius, 1775 , and Musca hydroleon Linnaeus, 1758 [as “ hydroleon F.”]. Coquillett (1910a: 541) designated Musca hydroleon Linnaeus, 1758 as the type species by subsequent designation. Musca hydroleon Linnaeus, 1758 is currently treated in Odontomyia Meigen, 1803 [teste Woodley (2001: 267)], which makes Eulalia Hendel, 1903 a junior synonym of Odontomyia Meigen, 1803 , n. syn.
