Revision of the Minettia fasciata species-group (Diptera, Lauxaniidae).
- The Minettia fasciata species-group is defined. It includes 4 Palaearctic
species, namely
Minettia czernyi Freidberg & Yarom,
Minettia fasciata
(Fallén) [= M. rivosa (Meigen), synonymy confirmed],
M. subvittata
(Loew) [= M. cataracta (Pandellé), syn. conf.] and
M. tabidiventris
(Rondani) [= M. luteofrontata (Becker), syn. nov; = M. fasciata auctt. nec
Fallén]. Sapromyza pallida Meigen is treated as a nomen dubium. All
available types were studied, the 4 species are described, illustrated and
compared with each other. A key to the species of Minettia with lateroventral black spots on the
scutellum is presented.
