Comments. The nomen Trinella was proposed by Goodnight & Goodnight (1947) for some Neotropical harvestmen now in the family Agoristenidae Šilhavý, 1973 . It is the largest genus in the subfamily Leiosteninae Šilhavý, 1973. It includes 33 species and is currently regarded as a valid taxon (e.g., Pinto-da-Rocha 1996; Kury 1997, 2003; Villarreal-M. & Rodríguez-Manzanilla 2003). According to Neave (1940), the generic nomen Trinella Goodnight & Goodnight 1947 is preoccupied by Trinella Bory de Saint Vincent, 1827 ( Protista : Ciliophora) (invalid senior subjective synonym of Tetrahymena Furgason, 1940 , according to a decision of ICZN, 1970) and Trinella Gray, 1870 (Coelenterata: Parisididae ) (subjective synonym of Parisis Verrill, 1864 , according to Kükenthal 1924).

The nomen Trinella Goodnight & Goodnight 1947 has four junior subjective synonyms. Avima , as the oldest nomen (by only 2 months), has precedence and should be used. The following combinations should now be used:
