摘要

果實蠅科Vidalia屬及其模式種V. impressifrons的分類地位過去一直令人相當地困惑，直到1999年重新指定了V. impressifrons的新模後才獲得解決。為了使新模的指定更為完整，本研究藉由對一隻新模式詳細的特徵檢查，對此新模加以重新描述、繪圖並陳述其特徵。本研究亦探討本科在Vidalia屬內和親緣位置。

The taxonomic status of Vidalia Robineau-Desvoidy and the identity of its type species, V. impressifrons Robineau-Desvoidy, have been highly confused in the past. This problem was resolved by the designation of a neotype for V. impressifrons in 1999. To supplement this neotype designation, V. impressifrons is fully redescribed, illustrated, and distinguished from its congeners. Its phylogenetic position within Vidalia is also discussed based on a detailed examination of the male neotype, which is the only known specimen of this species.
