Musca consanguinea Rondani, 1848 View in CoL

ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: 1848b: 78.

TYPE LOCALITY: “ Brasile [ Brazil]” ( Rondani 1848b: 63); [Belem (Pará), Brazil] ( Papavero 1973: 343). See Remarks.

TYPE MATERIAL: 1 ♂, syntype (covered with mold, missing left hind-leg) ( MZUF: Box 21): Musca Lin. / consanguinea Rnd. , Brasile / 1122; 1 ♂, 1 ♀, syntypes (couple pinned together) ( MZUN: Box Muscidae M02, 15): Musca consanguinea Rnd. , Brasile / M. Zool. N° 11391.

CURRENT STATUS: junior synonym of Musca domestica (Linnaeus, 1758) ( Pont 1972: 7, Thompson & Pont 1994: 64).

REMARKS: Rondani (1848b: 78) described both sexes of Musca consanguinea from an unspecified number of specimens collected in South America by V. Ghiliani. Costa (1866: 34) listed two MZUN specimens numbered “708”. We found three syntypes in this study. Although Rondani (1848b: 63) only gave the type locality as “ Brasile ”, Papavero (1973: 343) gave a more accurate type locality based on a note in Spinola (1853) that said all specimens collected by Ghiliani in 1846 were collected in Belem, Pará, Brazil.
