Subfamily Phaenomeridinae Erichson, 1847

Phaenomerini Erichson, 1847b: 655 [stem: Phaenomerid-]. Type genus: Phaenomeris Hope, 1833 [placed on the Official List of Generic Names in Zoology (ICZN 1962)]. Comment: stem emended from Phaenomer - to Phaenomerid - thus removing it from homonymy with another family-group name in Curculionidae and placed on the Official List of Family-Group Names in Zoology (ICZN 1962, as Phaenomerididae Ohaus, 1913); in this ruling (ICZN 1962) ‘‘ Ohaus, 1913 ’’ was erroneously given as the original author of this family-group name (see A. B. T. Smith 2006).
