Type genus: Zopherus Gray, 1833. Comment: original vernacular name available (Art. 11.7.2): first used in latinized form by Agassiz (1846b: 392, as Zopheroidae ), generally accepted as in Lawrence and Newton (1995: 891, as Zopheridae ). Nosodermini Casey, 1907: 280 [stem: Nosodermat-]. Type genus: Nosoderma Solier, 1841 [preoccupied genus name, not Nosoderma Guerin-Meneville , 1838 [ Coleoptera : Zopheridae : Zopherinae : Zopherini ]; syn. of Verodes Casey, 1907; see Foley and Ivie (2007) for comments on type genus]. Comment: permanently invalid (Art. 39): based on preoccupied type genus; all subsequent uses of Nosodermini were based on the junior homonym Nosoderma Solier, 1841 (see Foley and Ivie 2007); incorrect original stem formation, not in prevailing usage. Zopherosini Casey, 1907: 522 [stem: Zopherose-]. Type genus: Zopherosis A. White, 1859. Comment: incorrect original stem formation, not in prevailing usage.
