Emersoniella docophoroides (Piaget, 1885), new combination

Nirmus docophoroides Piaget, 1885: 19 .

Brueelia docophoroides (Piaget), 1885; Hopkins & Clay 1952: 55.

Type host. Terpsiphone paradisi (Linnaeus, 1758) —Asian paradise-flycatcher.

Remarks. Piaget (1885: 19) believed this species to be close to his Nirmus coniceps Piaget, 1880 . The single male (the holotype) in the Piaget collection at NHML is an Emersoniella, while all other material from this host examined by us belong to Guimaraesiella. As the preceding species, it keys out to either E. crassicarina or E. regis in the key of Gustafsson & Bush (2014), but the male genitalia differ from both, and thus appears to be a species from an unknown host. As only one male is available, we cannot ascertain whether it is the same species as one of the other species here transferred to Emersoniella or a different species. Piaget's type is likely a straggler, contaminant, or its host was misidentified.
