Hi everybody,

On our French forum, we had a thread about Alfredia acrobata Bezzi (without date). See https://www.insec...mp;t=49291.
Paride Dioli told us that the typus was destroyed in Milano's Museum in the WWII.

Do some of you know what is the correct taxon (and family) nowadays?

Limoniidae? Which genus?

Thanks in advance.
