Atopa
Paykull, 1799 [syn. of
Dascillus
Latreille, 1797]. Comment: original vernacular name available (Art. 11.7.2): first used in latinized form and generally accepted as in Laporte (1836: 21, as

Dascillidae
Guerin-Meneville
, 1843: 193 [stem: Dascill-]. Type genus:
Dascillus
Latreille, 1797. Comment: name proposed to replace
Atopidae
Laporte, 1834 because of the synonymy of the type genus; usage of younger name conserved over
Atopini
Laporte, 1834 (Art. 40.2) (see Lawrence and Newton 1995).
