Sarcophaga vagans: Syntype Ƥ: [round label] 2090 / 40 // Sarcophaga / vagans / Ƥ // Holotype Ƥ / Sarcophaga / vagans Meig. (MNHN) [terminalia dissected (by R. Richet) and placed in Canada balsam in a small slide pinned beneath the source specimen; first abdominal segments glued to the upper surface of the square of material used to enclose the slide]. Remarks. Meigen (1826) described Sarcophaga vagans on both sexes, as confirmed by the original identification label pinned beneath the syntype found in MNHN, as well as by the relatively low position of the female on the pin. The type series therefore consisted of at least two specimens (in all probability just the pair), and Richet’s labelling of the above female of Sarcophaga vagans as “ holotype ” is incorrect. The female, with a pentagonal vaginal plate, corresponds to S. (H.) vagans as treated by Rohdendorf (1937, as “ Pierretia (Eupierretia) frenata ”), Pape (1987), Povolný and Verves (1997) and Richet et al. (in press) (Figs 76–77).

I also agree with the recent synonymy of Sarcophaga bajkalensis with S. (H.) vagans proposed by Verves and Khrokalo (2006).
