Abstract
    While studying a series of Spanish Asilidae, problems arose with the identification of Machiremisca Lehr, 1996 specimens.The examination of the type material of Machimus margaretae Weinberg & Tsacas, 1975, as well as the study of the literaturereferring to this species, suggest that this taxon should be considered as a junior synonym of Machiremisca decipiens(Wiedermann in Meigen, 1820). High-resolution pictures of Machimus margaretae syn. n. are published for the first time.
