Tribe Ptinellini Reitter, 1906 (1891)

Neuglenini Reitter, 1891: 146 [stem: Neuglen-]. Type genus: Neuglenes C. G. Thomson, 1859 [syn. of Ptinella Motschulsky, 1844].

Ptinellini Reitter, 1906: 259 [stem: Ptinell-]. Type genus: Ptinella Motschulsky, 1844 [placed on the Official List of Generic Names in Zoology (ICZN 1985b)]. Comment: name proposed to replace Neuglenini Reitter, 1891 because of the synonymy of the type genus; use of younger family-group name Ptinellini Reitter, 1906 conserved (Art. 40.2).

*Pterycini Dybas, 1966: 16, 44 [stem: Pteryg-]. Type genus: Pteryx A. Matthews, 1858. Comment: incorrect original stem formation, not in prevailing usage; the earlier usage of " pterycine group" by Dybas (1955: 562) is unavailable because it is not a noun (Art. 11.7.1.1); also this name has been used subsequently by Hall (2003: 85) but the name Pterycini has not been made available yet (see Hall 2005: 257).
