Tribe Prionini Latreille, 1802

Prionii Latreille, 1802: 212 [stem: Prion-]. Type genus: Prionus Geoffroy, 1762 [placed on the Official List of Generic Names in Zoology (ICZN 1994a)].

*Prioceria Rafinesque, 1815: 116 [stem: Priocerat-]. Type genus: Prioceras Rafinesque, 1815 [as pointed out by Bousquet et al. (2009: 19) Rafinesque (1815: 116) listed the genus " Prioceras R. sp. do." following the genus " Prionus Fabr." in his subfamily Prioceria , the abbreviations after the genus name Prioceras mean that this is a new genus by the author “R[afinesque].” and that the new genus includes some species that were included in Prionus previously "sp. do."; Rafinesque did not list which species he included in his new genus Prioceras and we are not aware of any subsequent validation of this name; Prioceras Rafinesque is also listed as a nomen nudum in Neave (1940: 889) and Sherborn (1929: 5148)]. Comment: family-group name unavailable (Art. 11.7.1.1): not based on an available genus name at the time; incorrect original stem formation, not in prevailing usage.

*Micropsalides Lacordaire, 1868: 42 [stem: Micropsalid-]. Type genus: Micropsalis Burmeister, 1865 [preoccupied genus name, not Micropsalis Meyer, 1859 [ Crustacea ]; syn. of Apterocaulus Fairmaire, 1864].
