Tabanus brasiliensis Rondani, 1850 View in CoL
ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: 1850c: 192.
TYPE LOCALITY: “ Du Brésil [ Brazil]” ( Macquart 1847: 30) [type locality for Tabanus rufus ( Macquart, 1847) ].
TYPE MATERIAL: see Remarks.
CURRENT STATUS: junior synonym of Dichelacera januarii (Wiedemann, 1819) ( Fairchild 1971: 62, Coscarón & Papavero 2009: 84); junior synonym of Dichelacera fasciata Walker, 1850 (new synonymy, this work). See Remarks.
REMARKS: Rondani (1850c: 192) moved Dichelacera rufa Macquart, 1847 to the genus Tabanus Linnaeus, 1758 and proposed the new replacement name Tabanus brasiliensis for Tabanus rufus ( Macquart, 1847) , preoccupied by Scopoli (1763: 373). Philip (1965a: 120) and Fairchild (1971: 62) incorrectly reported a female type as in the MRSN. The type material for Tabanus brasiliensis will be the same as for the name it was proposed to replace, i. e., Tabanus rufus . There is no type of this latter species in the MHNL (O. Boilly, pers. comm., 2019), MNHN (Muséum national d’Histoire naturelle 2020), or OUMNH (Z. Simmons, pers. comm., 2019) where Macquart’s collection is preserved. Dichelacera rufa is currently treated as a junior synonym of Dichelacera fasciata Walker, 1850 ( Coscarón & Papavero 2009: 84); thus, Tabanus brasiliensis Rondani, 1850 is a junior synonym of Dichelacera fasciata Walker, 1850 , new synonymy.
