However, to my knowledge the whereabouts of the type(s) of X. fulvida are not known and therefore I follow the lead of Mannheims (1953) who synonymized the name with Ctenophora pectinicornis (see there for further discussion). No subspecies of Dictenidia bimaculata are recognized. Original description Synonyms Tipula maculata Linnaeus, 1758 (nomen oblitum?)
