Tribe Bromiini Baly, 1865 (1863)

Adoxinae Baly, 1863: 146 [stem: Adox-]. Type genus: Adoxus Kirby, 1837 [syn. of Bromius Chevrolat, 1836]. Comment: use of younger name Bromiini Baly, 1865 conserved over this name (Art. 40.2).

Heteraspinae Baly, 1863: 147 [stem: Heteraspid-]. Type genus: Heteraspis Chevrolat, 1836 [this genus (incorrectly attributed to "Chevrolat, 1837") has been treated as a synonym of Scelodonta Westwood, 1837 in the literature; Heteraspis was in fact made available by Chevrolat (1836: 413) and is a senior synonym of Scelodonta Westwood, 1837 (also see Löbl 2010: 83)]. Comment: although this is the oldest name for the tribe, we recommend that an application be sent to the Commission in order to conserve usage of Bromiini Baly, 1865; incorrect original stem formation, not in prevailing usage.

Bromiinae Baly, 1865: 438 [stem: Bromi-]. Type genus: Bromius Chevrolat, 1836 [an application to conserve Bromius Chevrolat, 1836, threatened by the older name Eumolpus Kugelann, 1798, was recently submitted to the Commission by Moseyko et al. (2010)]. Comment: use of family-group name conserved over Adoxiini Baly, 1863 (Art. 40.2).

Myochroinae Baly, 1865: 433 [stem: Myochro-]. Type genus: Myochrous Erichson, 1847.

Leprotites Chapuis, 1874: 268 [stem: Leprotet-]. Type genus: Leprotes Baly, 1863 [syn. of Fidia Motschulsky, 1860]. Comment: original vernacular name available (Art. 11.7.2): first used in latinized form by Lefèvre (1885: 71, as Leprotitae ), generally accepted as in Riley et al. (2002: 639, as Leprotites [treated as Latin]); incorrect original stem formation, not in prevailing usage.

Pseudocolaspites Chapuis, 1874: 287 [stem: Pseudocolaspid-]. Type genus: Pseudocolaspis Laporte, 1833. Comment: original vernacular name available (Art. 11.7.2): first used in latinized form and generally accepted as in Lefèvre (1885: 84, as Pseudocolaspitae ); incorrect original stem formation, not in prevailing usage.

Scelodontites Chapuis, 1874: 266 [stem: Scelodont-]. Type genus: Scelodonta Westwood, 1838 [syn. of Heteraspis Chevrolat, 1836]. Comment: original vernacular name available (Art. 11.7.2): first used in latinized form by Lefèvre (1885: 67, as Scelodontitae ), generally accepted as in Riley et al. (2002: 639, as Scelodontites [treated as Latin]).

Tomyrites Chapuis, 1874: 264 [stem: Tomyri-]. Type genus: Tomyris Chapuis, 1874 [preoccupied genus name, not Tomyris Eichald, 1831 [Reptilia]; syn. of Eboo Reid, 1993]. Comment: original vernacular name available (Art. 11.7.2): first used in latinized form and generally accepted as in Lefèvre (1885: 64, as Tomyritae ); permanently invalid (Art. 39): based on preoccupied type genus; incorrect original stem formation, not in prevailing usage.

*Goniopleurites Chapuis, 1875: 247 [stem: Goniopleur-]. Type genus: Goniopleura Westwood, 1832. Comment: original vernacular name unavailable (Art. 11.7.2): subsequently used in latinized form but not generally attributed to Chapuis (1875); Goniopleuridae was used as valid by Ienistea (1986: 31) but it was not attributed to Chapuis (1875); Ienistea’s name is also unavailable, it was proposed after 1930 without description or bibliographic reference to such a description (Art. 13.1); usage of the name Goniopleuridae dates back at least to the 1850's in Trilobita, however it is based on the junior homonym Goniopleura Hawle and Corda 1847 and the trilobite family-group name is therefore permanently invalid (Art. 39).

Eubrachini Jacoby, 1908: 432 [stem: Eubrach-]. Type genus: Eubrachis sensu Baly, 1878 [not Eubrachis Dejean, 1836; syn. of Macrocoma Chapuis, 1874]. Comment: based on misidentified type genus.

Nerissini Kuntzen, 1912: 42 [stem: Neriss-]. Type genus: Nerissus Chapuis, 1874.

Cynoini Clavareau, 1914: 109 [stem: Cynoi-]. Type genus: Cyno T. A. Marshall, 1865. Comment: incorrect original stem formation, not in prevailing usage.

Odontionopini Clavareau, 1914: 63 [stem: Odontionop-]. Type genus: Odontionopa Erichson, 1842 [preoccupied genus name, not Odontionopa Chevrolat, 1836 [ Coleoptera : Chrysomelidae : Eumolpinae : Euryopini ]; syn. of Eboo Reid, 1993]. Comment: permanently invalid (Art. 39): based on preoccupied type genus.

Trichochryseini Clavareau, 1914: 82 [stem: Trichochryse-]. Type genus: Trichochrysea Baly, 1861.

Lypesthini Chûjô, 1956: 87 [stem: Lypesthet-]. Type genus: Lypesthes Baly, 1863 [conservation of usage of this name over Fidia Motschulsky, 1860 rejected by Commission (ICZN 2009c); syn. of Fidia Motschulsky, 1860]. Comment: name proposed to replace Leprotini Chapuis, 1874 because of the synonymy of the type genus; incorrect original stem formation, not in prevailing usage.

Ebooina Reid, 1993: 61 [stem: Eboo-]. Type genus: Eboo Reid, 1993. Comment: replacement name for Tomyrites Chapuis, 1874 because of the homonymy of the type genus.
