Subfamily Dorcatominae Thomson, 1859

Dorcatomina C. G. Thomson, 1859: 90 [stem: Dorcatom-]. Type genus: Dorcatoma Herbst, 1791 [the original spelling Dorkatoma was placed on the Official Index of Rejected and Suppressed Generic Names in Zoology, Dorcatoma was chosen as correct original spelling and placed on the Official List of Generic Names in Zoology (ICZN 1995b)].

*Calymmaderini R. E. White, 1982: 22 [stem: Calymmader-]. Type genus: Calymmaderus Solier, 1849. Comment: unavailable family-group name, proposed after 1930 without description or bibliographic reference to such a description (Art. 13.1).

*Cryptoramorphini R. E. White, 1982: 25 [stem: Cryptoramorph-]. Type genus: Cryptoramorphus R. E. White, 1966. Comment: unavailable family-group name, proposed after 1930 without description or bibliographic reference to such a description (Art. 13.1).
