Family Ciidae Leach, 1819

Cisidae Leach, 1819: 206 [stem: Ci-]. Type genus: Cis Latreille, 1797. Comment: incorrect original stem formation, not in prevailing usage; Gistel (1848: [6], 1856a: 368) used the name Microtrocteidae for a family that included only the genus Cis Latreille, we could not find any genus name on which Microtrocteidae could be based on therefore this family-group name is unavailable.
