(misidentification)
Loxocera
ichneumonea auct. nec Linnaeus, 1761
Note: Musca ichneumonea described from Sweden
by Linnaeus (1761) is a doubtful species that
cannot be identified on the basis of the
original description and the types appear to
be lost. Most current authors assume that the
name refers to a hoverfly species (Syrphidae),
but in previous times the name has also been
applied to the present species; however, this
is here regarded as a misidentification. Musca
ichneumonea is here regarded as a nomen dubium
that most likely refers to a Syrphidae.
