ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: 1856: 188.

TYPE LOCALITY: Rondani gave no type locality in his original description but presumably it is Italy because the work deals with Italian species .

TYPE MATERIAL: 1 ♂, syntype (covered with mold, missing left mid- and both fore-legs) ( MZUF: Box 60): Alophroyda [sic!] Rnd. / cinerea Rndn. , Parma / 3156 .

CURRENT STATUS: doubtful species of Tipulidae ( Oosterbroek & Theowald 1992: 178) .

REMARKS: Rondani’s (1856: 188) key for the genus Alophroida Rondani, 1856 lists Alophroida cinerea as its type species, but he did not provide a detailed description, type locality, number or sex of the specimens. We also found one syntype in this study.
