Bricuox (1975) has all South France populations under creusa Meigen described from Italy, with four sub-races that might or might not be comparable to local (ecological) races or forms:- creusa trans cassandra (Gard): creusa (Nice): microcreusa (Roquebrune) thus following the example set by Verity. The need for a strict revision is much in evidence.
