Tribe Trypetidini Lacordaire, 1865

Trypetides Lacordaire, 1865: 177 [stem: Trypetid-]. Type genus: Trypetes Schönherr, 1836 [placed on the Official List of Generic Names in Zoology (ICZN 1974a)]. Comment: original vernacular name available (Art. 11.7.2): first used in latinized form by Pascoe (1870b: 437, as Trypetinae [incorrect stem formation]), generally accepted as in Alonso-Zarazaga and Lyal (1999: 209, as Trypetidini ); incorrect original stem formation, not in prevailing usage; stem based on Trypetes Schönherr, 1836 ruled to be Trypetid - and Trypetidinae placed on the Official List of Family-Group Names in Zoology (ICZN 1974a, as Trypetidinae Pierce, 1919).

Trypetesidae Heller, 1916: 348, in note [stem: Trypetes-]. Type genus: Trypetes Schönherr, 1836 [placed on the Official List of Generic Names in Zoology (ICZN 1974a)]. Comment: emendation for Trypetidae Lacordaire, 1865 to avoid homonymy with Trypetidae Loew, 1861 (type genus Trypeta Meigen, 1803) in Diptera ; corrected spelling not adopted since it creates homonymy problem with Trypetesidae Stebbing, 1910 (type genus Trypetesa Norman, 1903) in Crustacea .
