Tribe Mecyclothoracini Jeannel, 1940

Mecyclothoracitae Jeannel, 1940: 97 [stem: Mecyclothorac-]. Type genus: Mecyclothorax Sharp, 1903. Comment: name proposed after 1930 without description or bibliographic reference to such a description (Art. 13.1), however available because it was used as valid before 2000 as in Lorenz (1998a: 222) and was not rejected by an author who, between 1961 and 1999, applied Article 13 of the then current edition of the Code (see Art. 13.2.1).
