Phytoecia rubropunctata (Goeze, 1777)
Musaria rubropunctata (Goeze, 1777)

Some authors place this species in its own genus Musaria, while other authors regard Musaria as a subgenus of Phytoecia. In my opinion, there is currently insufficient evidence for the monophyly of Musaria and the other subgenera of Phytoecia to warrant their acceptance as separate genera. Therefore, I currently do not split Phytoecia into numerous smaller genera.
