Sarcophaga varipes Rondani, 1851
ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: 1851: 364.
TYPE LOCALITY: “ regioni equatoriali dell’America, principalmente nelle vicinanze del Rio Napo [ Equatorial regions of ( South ) America, mainly in the vicinity of Napo River]” ( Rondani 1851: 357) .
TYPE MATERIAL: not found in this study.
CURRENT STATUS: doubtful species of Sarcophaginae View in CoL ( Lopes 1969: 54, Pape 1996: 447).
REMARKS: Rondani (1851: 364) described Sarcophaga varipes from just the female sex, giving a range of lengths, from material collected by Osculati (1850) during his journey through equatorial South America. Osculati (1850: 240) listed “ varipes ” under the generic name Sarchophaga but did not describe the species. Leonardi et al. (1995: 148) and Mazzotti (2011: 166) reported the Osculati collection in Milan as destroyed. We also did not find any type material during this study.
