Originally Zetterstedt collected four specimens (probably, all of them were females); three of them he has sent to his colleagues for the study. He included these specimens to the type series, and current location(s) of them is (are) unknown. The specimen stored in Natural History Museum of Denmark (Copenhagen, Denmark) does not probably refer to this series. First of all, this specimen is a male, second, this one lacks black label used by Zetterstedt for all the other findings of the expedition to Lappland in 1832. Zetterstedt (1838) described the species by a female specimen, which is stored in his collection (Entomological Museum of Lund University, Sweden): Lycksele, 1 ♀, 1832 leg. Zetterstedt (coll. Zetterstedt, Dipt. Scan.); Label 1: Pach. fasciata Zett. Lycksele. Label 2: Black label. We designated this specimen as lectotype, to fix and stabilize the current concept of the name, since this is the only known specimen of the type series studied by Zetterstedt personally (fig. 11–12). Distribution. Wrongly specified location The data of Lundström (1910), later cited by Väisänen (1982), as following: " USSR: Karelian ASSR: Fl. Swir, Ƌ, 1869 -06- 15 – 16, J.Sahlberg". "Karelian ASSR " (currently, Republic of Karelia, Russia) is given incorrectly, since Svir River lies within Leningrad Oblast. Thus, this is the first record of the species and family for Leningrad Oblast. Data demanding verification. Central Europe. Väisänen (1982), citing Duda (1930), listed P. fasciata for Central Europe, but noted that these observations demanded verification. Duda (1930) published data on two specimens, a male from the collection of Hungarian Natural History Museum (Budapest, Hungary) and a female from the collection of Naturhistorisches Museum (Wien, Austria). The material from Hungarian Natural History Museum has been lost (Földvári & Papp 2007). However, Duda referred to this specimen as sampled from Muonio, Finnish Lapland. The female specimen from Naturhistorisches Museum has been examined by the first author (see the list of the studied specimens, this specimen was sampled from Sweden). Duda indicated the distribution of P. fasciata as « Europa sept. », i.e. Northern Europe. Poland. The species was recorded from Poland by Krivosheina & Mamaev (1988). However, in later publications (Razowski 1991) as well as in the e-base FaunaEuropea (de Jong 2015), this family is absent in the list of the species of Poland. N.P. Krivisheina (personal communication) stated that the P. fasciata data was provided by B.M. Mamaev during his work in Poland. The specimen(s) were thought to be kept in an unknown collection believed to be in a region of suburban Warsaw. For the time being P. fasciata should therefore be excluded from the Polish Diptera list until Mamaev’s specimens surface, or fresh material is reported. Italy. Although P. fasciata is noted from the Italian Diptera list (Northern Italy), this species was noted as erroneous by the authors (Stoch 2003) and also doubtfully noted in FaunaEuropea (de Jong 2015). Taiwan (Formosa). The first reference of P. fasciata for Taiwan was made by F.W. Edwards (1928). Though the material is lacking to confirm this there are three references given in the manuscript that are of interest. First, to Matsumura (1916) who found this species in Japan, second, to Johannsen (1909) who referred to the first species description by Zetterstedt (1838) and indicated it had been found in Northern Europe, and third, to Loew (1858) who did not provide any data on the species distribution. Edwards did not provide the original data. Thus, most likely, he obtained them after personal communications with his colleagues. No specimens of P. fasciata from Taiwan are present in the British Museum (Natural History Museum) collection where Edwards was a curator. Earlier, Edwards received material from Taiwan from Dr. T. Shiraki, Chief Entomologist (The Agriculture Experimental Station, Taiboku/Taihoku, Formosa), and published two articles on the family Tipulidae in Taiwan referring to this material (1916, 1921). The fate of the collection stored at Agriculture Experimental Station in Taiwan is unknown. The samples collected by H. Sautera in Taiwan (Formosa) are stored in the Hungarian Natural History Museum (HNHM). Some of these samples (Nematocera) were studied by Riedel (1912, 1913, 1917, 1918) but his publications do not refer to the family Pachyneuridae in Taiwan. In 1956, there was a fire in the Museum, and a part of the collection (including Nematocera) was lost (Földvári & Papp 2007).
