Subfamily Pleganophorinae Jacquelin du Val, 1858

Pleganophorides Jacquelin du Val, 1858: 186 [stem: Pleganophor-]. Type genus: Pleganophorus Hampe, 1855. Comment: original vernacular name available (Art. 11.7.2): first used in latinized form by Gerstaecker (1861: 419, as Pleganophoridae ), generally accepted as in Pakaluk et al. (1994: 233, as Pleganophorinae ).

Trochoideites Chapuis, 1876: 146 [stem: Trochoide-]. Type genus: Trochoideus Westwood, 1833. Comment: original vernacular name available (Art. 11.7.2): first used in latinized form and generally accepted as in Ganglbauer (1899: 926, as Trochoideinae ); the earlier use of Trochoideidae by Gorham (1874: 185) is not considered to be a proposal for a new family-group taxon but was rather used as a hypothetical example addressed to the editors of the journal.
