Asarkina (Asarkina) eremophila ( Loew, 1858) View in CoL [ SYRPHINAE : SYRPHINI ]
Asarcina eremophila Loew, 1858: 380 View in CoL . Type locality: Sudan (Nubia).
World distribution: AF: Democratic Republic of Congo, Ethiopia, Kenya, Sudan, Tanzania. PA:? Egypt.
Egyptian localities:?Upper Egypt [ Loew 1858].
Activity period in Egypt: Unknown.
Remarks: Shaumar & Kamal (1978) listed Asarcina eremophila Loew, 1858 as recorded from Egypt based mainly on the fact that “Nubia”, the type locality of the species, is a name of a region extending between Egypt and Sudan. We suppose this Afrotropical species was described from Sudan, and not from Egypt.
