The interpretation of some Conopidae (Diptera) described by Robineau­Desvoidy Author Stuke, Jens-Hermann Author Clements, David K. text Zootaxa 2005 886 1 12 journal article 51077 10.5281/zenodo.170914 de030dcc-8f78-4d62-b81e-2a49361f55cc 1175­5326 170914 " Pictina fulvipalpis R. D." A female of Myopa extricata Collin, 1960 . The right middle leg is missing, but otherwise the specimen is well preserved. The specimen bears the following labels: (1) "M. / fulvipalpis / coll. Big." [round, white label]; (2) "Pictina / fulvipalpis R. D." [light­blue label]. This specimen was determined and labelled by Robineau­Desvoidy and can therefore be interpreted as a syntype of Pictina fulvipalpis Robineau­Desvoidy, 1853 : 96 ­97. Since this specimen appears to be the only known syntype of Pictina fulvipalpis it is herewith designated lectotype and the following label has been added: " Lectotypus / Pictina fulvipalpis / Robineau­Desvoidy, 1853 / des. Stuke & Clements, 2005" [red label, printed]. Chvála & Smith (1988) interpreted this species as a "doubtful species of Myopa ." However, on the basis of the present specimen Pictina fulvipalpis Robineau­Desvoidy, 1853 can now be placed as a senior synonym of Myopa extricata Collin, 1960 [ syn. nov. ] (see note under Phorosia pellucida , above, concerning our use of the name extricata Collin, 1960 ).
