Tribe Pimeliini Latreille, 1802

Pimeliariae Latreille, 1802: 166 [stem: Pimeli-]. Type genus: Pimelia Fabricius, 1775.

Pimidinia Rafinesque, 1815: 113 [stem: Pimidi-]. Type genus: Pimidia Rafinesque, 1815 [syn. of Pimelia Fabricius, 1775]. Comment: incorrect original stem formation, not in prevailing usage.

*Platyopes Motschulsky, 1849: 58 [stem: Platyop-]. Type genus: Platyope Fischer von Waldheim, 1820. Comment: original vernacular name unavailable (Art. 11.7.2): subsequently used in latinized form but not generally attributed to Motschulsky (1849).

Platyopidae Semenov, 1893a: 260 [stem: Platyop-]. Type genus: Platyope Fischer von Waldheim, 1820. Comment: family-group name proposed as new without reference to Platyopes Motschulsky, 1849; Platyopidae Huene, 1931 has been used in amphibians (type genus Platyops Twelvetrees, 1880) but this name is permanently invalid since it is based on a preoccupied genus name.

Leucolaephusini Pierre, 1961: 558 [stem: Leucolaeph-]. Type genus: Leucolaephus Lucas, 1859. Comment: incorrect original stem formation, not in prevailing usage.
