ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: 1856: 185.

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 ( MZUF: Box 59): Pelosia Rndn. / albifrons Rndn. , Parma / 3113.

CURRENT STATUS: doubtful species of Limoniidae ( Savchenko et al. 1992: 369) View in CoL .

REMARKS: Rondani’s (1856: 185) key for the genus Pelosia Rondani, 1856 lists Pelosia albifrons as its type species, but he did not provide a detailed description, type locality, number or sex of the specimens. We found one syntype in this study.
