quinquemaculata Macquart, 1839 , Anthomyia
Anthomyia quinquemaculata Macquart, 1839: 116 . Lectotype ♂, locality not given (from title: Canary Islands), by designation of Hennig (1968: 209) , in MNHN.
MATERIAL. — The lectotype is one of 3 ♂♂ under no. 372 of the Macquart collection. It is in excellent condition; the abdomen has been removed, and the parts of the terminalia have been mounted on three slides by Hennig. It is labelled by Macquart “N°. 92. / Anthomyia / 5-maculata”, and also as lectotype by Hennig. The number 92 is the serial number of the species in Macquart’s paper. The other 2 ♂♂ have been labelled as paralectotypes.
CURRENT IDENTITY. — Bezzi & Stein (1907: 728) and Hennig (loc. cit.) suggested that A. quinquemaculata Macquart, 1839 was a junior synonym of Anthomyia pluvialis (Linnaeus, 1758) , but it has been shown to be a good species of Anthomyia Meigen, 1803 , by Michelsen (1980: 287 ; see also Michelsen & Baez 1985: 288 ).
