Subtribe Aterpina Lacordaire, 1863 nomen protectum

Heliomeneidae Gistel, 1848: [8] [stem: Heliomen-]. Type genus: Heliomene Gistel, 1848 [syn. of Chrysolopus Germar, 1817]. Comment: as pointed out by Alonso-Zarazaga and Lyal (2002: 22) this is the oldest available name for the subtribe name; Heliomeneini Gistel, 1848 was recently considered a nomen oblitum by Colonnelli (2003: 7) however the necessary supporting references were not provided; we hereby consider Heliomeneini Gistel, 1848 as a nomen oblitum (see supporting references in Appendix 1); incorrect original stem formation, not in prevailing usage.

Aterpides Lacordaire, 1863: 410 [stem: Aterp-]. Type genus: Aterpus Schönherr, 1826 [syn. of Aades Schönherr, 1823]. Comment: nomen protectum (see Appendix 1); original vernacular name available (Art. 11.7.2): first used in latinized form by Pascoe (1870b: 436, as Aterpinae ), generally accepted as in Alonso-Zarazaga and Lyal (1999: 140, as Aterpini ).

* Pelororhinides Lacordaire, 1863: 415 [stem: Pelororhin-]. Type genus: Pelororhinus Schönherr, 1834. Comment: original vernacular name unavailable (Art. 11.7.2): subsequently used in latinized form, e.g., Heyne and Taschenberg (1907: 228, as Pelororhinini ), Morrone (1997: 101, as Pelorhirhini [incorrect stem formation]), but not generally accepted as valid; Pelorhinidae [incorrect stem formation] was used as valid by Ienistea (1986: 33) but it was not attributed to Lacordaire (1863); Ienistea’s name is also unavailable, it was proposed after 1930 without description or bibliographic reference to such a description (Art. 13.1).

Lophotides Jekel, 1865: 546 [stem: Lophot-]. Type genus: Lophotus Schönherr, 1834 [preoccupied genus name, not Lophotus Giorna, 1809 [Pisces]; syn. of Aegorhinus Erichson, 1834]. Comment: permanently invalid (Art. 39): based on preoccupied type genus.

Rhinarides Jekel, 1865: 546 [stem: Rhinari-]. Type genus: Rhinaria Kirby, 1819. Comment: incorrect original stem formation, not in prevailing usage.
