Nemorea nupta Rondani 1859

Nemorea nupta Rondani, 1859 ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: 1859b: 72 (key), 73 (description). TYPE LOCALITY: “ in agro parmensi … Dania … Germania [Parmese territory (Italy) … Denmark … Germany]”. TYPE MATERIAL: 1 ♂, syntype (dirty) (MZUF: Box 11): Nemorea Desv. / nupta Rnd. / 516; 1 ♂, syntype (MSNPV: Box 97): Nemorea nupta Rnd., 380, ♂, Parma. CURRENT STATUS: junior synonym of Nemoraea pellucida (Meigen, 1824) (Herting & Dely-Draskovits 1993: 283). REMARKS: Rondani (1859b: 73) described both sexes of Nemorea nupta sex without specifying either the number or the length of the specimens: “ Maris unum, et foeminae specimina duo a me lecta fuerunt …, sed uterque sexus in posterum a Dania missus, … a Clar. Staegero, et a Germania a Doct. Schinero [one male and two female specimens were collected by me …, but subsequently both sexes were sent to me by Mr. Staeger from Denmark and by Dr. Schiner from Germany]”. We found two male syntypes in this study. The female type has presumably been lost. Rondani described this nominal species under the generic name “ Nemorea ”, which is an “incorrect subsequent spelling of Nemoraea Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 or subsequent usage of Nemorea Macquart, 1834 ” (O’Hara et al. 2011: 126).
