Tribe
Adeliini Kirby, 1828
Adeliadae
Kirby, 1828: 525 [stem: Adeli-]. Type genus:
Adelium
Kirby, 1819. Comment: family-group name attributed to Hope (1840a: 188) in recent literature; this is a senior homonym of
Adeliini
Viereck, 1918 (type genus
Adelius
Haliday, 1833) which is considered a valid tribe in the
Hymenoptera
:
Braconidae
:
Cheloninae
; this case is to be referred to the Commission to remove the homonymy (Art. 55.3.1).
*
Apatelates
Mulsant and Rey, 1859: 87 [stem: Apatel-]. Type genus:
Apatelus
Mulsant and Rey, 1859. Comment: original vernacular name unavailable (Art. 11.7.2): subsequently used in latinized form, e.g., Heyne and Taschenberg (1907: 208, as
Apatelini
), but not generally accepted as valid; if evidence is found in the future that would lead to the treatment of Mulsant and
Rey's
name as available, this would threaten the younger name originally proposed as
Apatelinae
Grote, 1883 (type genus
Apatele
Huebner
, 1822) in
Lepidoptera
which has been used as valid in recent literature.
