Hi, Where did you find this name Lathyrophthalmus. No trace in Fauna europaea. This is to be found in zipcodezoo.com http://zipcodezoo...s_astrops/, but I don't know in which region of the world. Pierre Duhem |

I have a book of 2002 (Kurt Kormann "Schwebfliegen und Blasenkopffliegen Mitteleuropas" ) where this species is described as Lathyrophthalmus aeneus (SCOPOLI, 1763)

Now correctly there is Eristalinus Rondani, 1857 as genus, Lathyrophthalmus Mik, 1897 as subgenus of Eristalinus, for E. aeneus for example. See also: Perez-Banon C., Rojo S., Stahls G. & Marcos-Garcia M. A. Taxonomy of European Eristalinus (Diptera: Syrphidae) based on larval morphology and molecular data // European Journal of Entomology. — 2003. — Vol. 100, No. 3. — P. 417–428. |

So, the correct name would be Eristalinus (Lathyropthalmus) aeneus!

Thank you. A few days ago I had a similar discussion about the synonym of the species Leucozona glaucia. How about the synonym of Leucozona glaucia Syn.: Ischyrosyrphus glaucius ? |
