Abstract

The International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature has used its plenary power to conserve the names Bengalia jejuna (Fabricius, 1787) and Bengalia torosa (Wiedemann, 1819) in their accustomed usage, and to set aside three female syntypes of Musca jejuna Fabricius, 1787, and the male and female syntypes of Musca torosa Wiedemann, 1819, by replacing them with male neotypes.
