Abstract
This is the first in a series of rigorous nomenclatural studies of selected Diptera workers, undertaken as part of the Biosystematic Database of World Diptera (BDWD). A total of 566 genus-group names of Diptera proposed by A.-J.-B. Robineau-Desvoidy are listed, each with all originally included nominal species, method of typification, current taxonomic status, and emendations. A detailed biography of Robineau-Desvoidy is given with discussion of his works and his relationships with contemporaries. In addition, an index to all the species-group names of Diptera proposed by RobineauDesvoidy (3,204) is given with bibliographic reference to each original citation. Appended to this study are a full bibliography of Robineau-Desvoidy’s works, a list of collectors on which Robineau-Desvoidy based his Diptera studies, a list of collecting localities mentioned in his Diptera works, and a reproduction of the little-known but valuable 1826 Blainville Rapport of Robineau-Desvoidy’s 1830 Essai sur les Myodaires. Type species are designated for the following genus-group names: Dasyphora Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 [Muscidae]; Dyctia Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 [Sciomyzidae]; Fimetia Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 [Sphaeroceridae]; and Haematobia Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 [Muscidae]. Acting as First Reviser of multiple original spellings, the following are selected as correct original spellings for genus-group names: Arisbaea Robineau-Desvoidy, 1863 [Tachinidae]; Carbonia Robineau-Desvoidy, 1863 [Tachinidae]; Elbaea Robineau-Desvoidy, 1863 [Tachinidae]; Eversmania Robineau-Desvoidy, 1863 [Tachinidae]; Faedoria Robineau-Desvoidy, 1863 [Tachinidae]; Fairmairia Robineau-Desvoidy, 1853 [Conopidae]; Gymnodia Robineau-Desvoidy, 1863 [Muscidae]; Lylibaea Robineau-Desvoidy, 1863 [Tachinidae]; Phaenicia Robineau-Desvoidy, 1863 [Calliphoridae]; Solieria Robineau-Desvoidy, 1849 [Tachinidae]; and Stephensia Robineau-Desvoidy, 1863 [Tachinidae]; and for species-group names: Cyzenis haemisphaerica Robineau-Desvoidy, 1863 [Tachinidae]. Earlier or corrected type-species designations are given for the following genus-group names: Elpigia RobineauDesvoidy, 1863 [Sarcophagidae]; Erigone Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 [Tachinidae]; Kirbya Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 [Tachinidae]; Lilaea Robineau-Desvoidy, 1863 [Tachinidae]; Meckelia Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 [Ulidiidae]; Melinda Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 [Calliphoridae]; Misellia Robineau-Desvoidy, 1863 [Sarcophagidae]; Myophora RobineauDesvoidy, 1830 [Sarcophagidae]; Myoris Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 [Ulidiidae]; Odinia Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 [Odiniidae]; Phoraea Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 [Anthomyiidae]; Rhinia Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 [Rhiniidae]; Rhinophora Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 [Rhinophoridae]; Sabethes Robineau-Desvoidy, 1827 [Culicidae]; Salticella RobineauDesvoidy, 1830 [Sciomyzidae]; and Urellia Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 [Tephritidae].

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
