Family Vombatidae Burnett, 1830 (1820) View in CoL . Quart. J. Lit. Sci. Art., 1829:351 [1830].

SYNONYMS: Phascolomyidae .

COMMENTS: Phascolomyidae Goldfuss, 1820 , is based on Phascolomis , a junior synonym ( Haltenorth, 1958:32). Because Phascolomyidae was replaced with Vombatidae before 1961, and because Vombatidae has won general acceptance, it is to be maintained (Art. 40b of the Code of Nomenclature, International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature, 1985).
