List of genus-group names in Dejean’s second catalogue (1833–1836)
Below is a list of all new genus-group names proposed in Dejean’s second catalogue following the taxonomic arrangement used in his catalogue. No new genera were proposed in the Pentamères: Carabiques and the Dimères. The Appendix gives all generic names listed in Dejean (1833-1836a) which were available prior to the publication of his catalogue.
Many generic names were proposed for the first time in Dejean’s second catalogue as invalid synonyms. According to the ICZN (1999: Article 11.6.1), a name originally published as junior synonym of an available name can be available from its first publication as synonym if it had been treated before 1961 as an available name and either adopted as the name of a taxon or treated as a senior homonym. The originally included species are the species (cited by available names) first directly associated with the synonym (ICZN 1999: Article 67.12). Except for the name Sphaeromorphus Dejean, the species first directly associated with the synonym are the species listed by Dejean following the synonym. Three names first published as junior synonyms in Dejean’s second catalogue are available: Adoretus Dejean, 1833, Sphaeromorphus Dejean, 1833, and Pterostenus Dejean, 1835.
In several instances, Dejean proposed a new generic name as valid while he listed a genus name in synonymy that was already available. It is obvious that Dejean proposed replacement names or emendations in most cases, sometimes with reason because of homonymy, but on other occasions without apparent reason. In five of those cases (Ampedus, Saerangodes, Eutrapela, Plocaederus, and Amphionycha), the names were not considered as replacement names because it was self-evident that it was not Dejean’s intention; these names are interpreted as new names. Two names are interpreted as unjustified emendations, Pandarus Dejean, 1834 for Dendarus Dejean, 1821 and Monohammus Dejean, 1835 for Monochamus Dejean, 1821. All other names are interpreted as replacement names.

Type species: Dytiscus cinereus Linnaeus, 1758 by subsequent designation (Westwood 1838: 8).
Current status: valid genus in Dytiscidae (fideNilsson 2003: 49).
Liopterus Dejean, 1833: 54 (as “Liopterus. Eschscholtz.”)
Originally included available species: Dytiscus oblongus Illiger, 1801.
Type species: Dytiscus oblongus Illiger, 1801 (= Dytiscus haemorrhoidalis Fabricius, 1787) by monotypy.

Nogrus Dejean, 1833: 53 (as “Nogrus. Eschscholtz.”)
Originally included available species: Dytiscus griseus Fabricius, 1781; Dytiscus sticticus Linnaeus, 1767 (as “Var. Sticticus. Fabr.”).
Type species: Dytiscus griseus Fabricius, 1781 (= Dytiscus sticticus Linnaeus, 1767) by monotypy.
Current status: objective synonym of Eretes Laporte, 1833 in Dytiscidae (fideNilsson 2003: 53).
Comments. The name sticticus is listed as a variety of griseus in Dejean’s catalogue; therefore the type species of Nogrus is griseus by monotypy (ICZN 1999: Article 68.3).
The name Eretes Laporte was proposed in the fourth and last issue of the first volume (1832) of the Annales de la Société Entomologique de France which was likely published in 1833, probably after the first livraison of Dejean’s catalogue (recorded on 19 January 1833). Therefore Nogrus Dejean is probably older than Eretes Laporte although we are unable to confirm it.

Originally included available species: Staphylinus violaceus Olivier, 1795.
Type species: Staphylinus violaceus Olivier, 1795 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Staphylinidae (fideHerman 2001c: 3743).
Sauromorphus Dejean, 1833: 59
Originally included available species: none.
Pentamères: Sternoxes
Abrobapta
Dejean, 1833: 80
Originally included available species: none.
Actenodes Dejean, 1833: 80
Originally included available species: Buprestis nobilis Fabricius, 1787.
Type species: Buprestis nobilis Linnaeus, 1758 (Opinion 2008 in ICZN 2002: 212).
Current status: valid genus in Buprestidae (fideBellamy 2008c: 1560).
Comments. Linnaeus (1758: 410) described Buprestis nobilis from “Indiis.” Fabricius (1787: 180) described a new species under the name Buprestis nobilis and gave the provenance as “Cajennae.” It is quite obvious that Dejean (1833: 80) had Fabricius’ species in mind since “Cayennae” is listed as the provenance for his specimens. Fabricius’ species is currently included in the genus Chrysobothris Eschscholtz, 1829 (Bellamy 2008c: 1657) while Linnaeus’ species is actually included in the genus Actenodes Dejean, 1833 and recorded only from the Neotropical Region, including French Guiana (Bellamy 2008c: 1569). As far as we know, Saunders (1871: 93) is the first author to have listed, without comments, nobilis Linnaeus from Cayenne and ever since Linnaeus’ species is recorded from the Neotropical Region only. Nobody seems to have studied the type material of Buprestis nobilis Linnaeus. There is no Actenodes known from India or from Eurasia which leads to speculate that nobilis Linnaeus, unless the provenance given by Linnaeus is incorrect, is probably not an Actenodes. Nevertheless, the ICZN (2002: 212) ruled that Buprestis nobilis Linnaeus, 1758, a species not Originally included in Dejean (1833: 80), is the type species of Actenodes Dejean.
AmpedusDejean, 1833: 92 (as “Ampedus. Megerle.”)
Originally included available species: Elater auritus Herbst, 1806; Elater balteatus Linnaeus, 1758 (as “Balteatus. Fabr.”); Elater carbonicolor Eschscholtz, 1829; Elater collaris Say, 1825; Elater elongatulus Fabricius, 1787; Elater ephippium Olivier, 1790 (as “Ephippium. Fabr.”); Elater erythrogonus Müller, 1821; Elater nigricollis Say, 1823; Elater nigrinus Herbst, 1784 (as “Nigrinus. Gyllenhal.”); Elater praeustus Fabricius, 1792; Elater sanguineus Linnaeus, 1758 (as “Sanguineus. Fabr.”); Elater sanguinicollis Panzer, 1793; Elater sanguinipennis Say, 1823; Elater semiruber Stephens, 1830 (as “Semiruber. Leach.”); Elater tristis Linnaeus, 1758 (as “Tristis. Fabr.”); Elater verticinus Palisot de Beauvois, 1819.
Type species: Elater sanguineus Linnaeus, 1758 by subsequent designation (Curtis 1838: Pl. 694).
Current status: valid genus in Elateridae (fideCate 2007: 120).
Analampis
Dejean, 1833: 79
Originally included available species: none.
Brachys Dejean, 1833: 83
Originally included available species: Trachys tesselatus Fabricius, 1801.
Type species: Trachys tesselatus Fabricius, 1801 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Buprestidae (fideBellamy 2008d: 2571).
Callimicra Dejean, 1833: 83
Originally included available species: none.
CardiotarsusDejean, 1833: 91 (as “Cardiotarsus. Eschscholtz.”)
Originally included available species: none.
Catoxantha Dejean, 1833: 75
Originally included available species: Buprestis bicolor Fabricius, 1775; Buprestis heros Wiedemann, 1823.
Type species: Buprestis bicolor Fabricius, 1775 by monotypy.
Current status: senior synonym of Megaloxantha Kerremans, 1902 in Buprestidae (fideBellamy 2008a: 446).
Comments. The name heros is listed in synonymy with bicolor in Dejean’s catalogue; therefore the type species of Catoxantha is bicolor by monotypy (ICZN 1999: Article 68.3).
Catoxantha Solier, 1833 [type species: Buprestis opulenta Gory, 1832] is currently considered a valid genus and is treated as a senior homonym of Catoxantha Dejean, 1833 (e.g., Bellamy 2008a: 446). However Dejean’s name is older than Solier’s name (see “Precedence” section[1]). Usage of Catoxantha Dejean, 1833 as valid would imply nomenclatural changes: Megaloxantha Kerremans, 1902 would become a junior synonym of Catoxantha Dejean and Catoxantha Solier would be replaced by Epacmene Gistel, 1848. A request to the Commission to suppress Catoxantha Dejean, 1833 is necessary to promote nomenclatural stability.
Chalcophora Dejean, 1833: 77 (as “Chalcophora. Serville.”)
Originally included available species: Buprestis detrita Klug, 1829; Buprestis fabricii Rossi, 1794; Buprestis mariana Linnaeus, 1758 (as “Mariana. Fabr.”); Buprestis quadrinotata Klug, 1829; Buprestis stigmatica Dalman, 1817 (as “Stigmatica. Schönherr.”); Buprestis virginiensis Drury, 1773 (as “Virginiensis. Herbst.”).
Type species: Buprestis mariana Linnaeus, 1758 by subsequent designation (Duponchel 1843: 372).
Current status: valid genus in Buprestidae (fideBellamy 2008a: 558).
Chrysesthes Dejean, 1833: 78 (as “Chrysesthes. Serville.”)
Originally included available species: Buprestis angularis Dalman, 1817 (as “Angularis. Schönherr.”); Buprestis tripunctata Fabricius, 1787.
Type species: Buprestis tripunctata Fabricius, 1787 by subsequent designation (Drapiez 1837: 412).
Current status: valid genus in Buprestidae (fideBellamy 2008a: 588).
Chrysochroa Dejean, 1833: 75 (as “Chrysochroa. Carcel.”)
Originally included available species: Buprestis fulgida Olivier, 1790 (as “Fulgida. Fabr.”); Buprestis fulminans Fabricius, 1787; Buprestis ignita Linnaeus, 1758 (as “Ignita. Fabr.”); Buprestis mutabilis Olivier, 1790; Buprestis ocellata Fabricius, 1775; Buprestis vittata Fabricius, 1775.
Type species: Buprestis fulminans Fabricius, 1787 by subsequent designation (Kurosawa 1982: 185).
Current status: valid genus in Buprestidae (fideBellamy 2008a: 429).
Cratonychus
Dejean, 1833: 87
Comments. This name is treated as an unnecessary replacement name for Melanotus Eschscholtz, 1829 [Elateridae].
Ctenonychus
Dejean, 1833: 87
Originally included available species: none.
Comments. Dejean’s name is considered to be different from Ctenonychus Stephens, 1830 also proposed in Elateridae.
CylindroderusDejean, 1833: 94 (as “Cylindroderus. Eschscholtz.”)
Originally included available species: none.
Cyphonota Dejean, 1833: 79
Originally included available species: Buprestis sibirica Fabricius, 1781; Buprestis tartarica Pallas, 1773.
Type species: Buprestis sibirica Fabricius, 1781 (= Buprestis tartarica Pallas, 1773) by monotypy.
Current status: name suppressed in Buprestidae.
Comments. The name tartarica is listed in synonymy with sibirica in Dejean’s catalogue; therefore the type species of Cyphonota is sibirica by monotypy (ICZN 1999: Article 68.3).
Cyphonota Dejean was suppressed for the purposes of the Principle of Priority in Opinion 2083 (ICZN 2004).
Cyria Dejean, 1833: 75 (as “Cyria. Serville.”)
Originally included available species: Buprestis imperialis Fabricius, 1801.
Type species: Buprestis imperialis Fabricius, 1801 by monotypy.
Current status: junior homonym of Cyria Leach, 1818 [Mollusca]; senior subjective synonym of Cyrioides Carter, 1920 in Buprestidae (fideBellamy 2008b: 1017).
Diphucrania Dejean, 1833: 81
Originally included available species: Buprestis leucosticta Kirby, 1819.
Type species: Buprestis leucosticta Kirby, 1819 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Buprestidae (fideBellamy 2008e: 3262).
Comments. The ICZN (2008: 325) voted against the suppression of Diphucrania Dejean, 1833 in Opinion 2214 to maintain Cisseis Gory and Laporte, 1839. Therefore Diphucrania Dejean has precedence over Cisseis Gory and Laporte.
DirhagusDejean, 1833: 84 (as “Dirhagus. Eschscholtz.”)
Originally included available species: none.
Euchroma Dejean, 1833: 76 (as “Euchroma. Serville.”)

Type species: Buprestis austriaca Linnaeus, 1767 by subsequent designation (Duponchel 1845: 525).
Current status: valid genus in Buprestidae (fideBellamy 2008b: 1076).
Evides Dejean, 1833: 77 (as “Evides. Serville.”)
Originally included available species: Buprestis elegans Fabricius, 1781; Buprestis satrapa Schönherr, 1817; Buprestis smaragdula Olivier, 1790 (as “Smaragdula. Fabr.”); Buprestis suturalis Fabricius, 1801; Buprestis ventricosa Olivier, 1790.
Type species: Buprestis elegans Fabricius, 1781 by subsequent designation (Bellamy 1997: 370).
Current status: valid genus in Buprestidae (fideBellamy 2008a: 569).
Geronia
Dejean, 1833: 79
Originally included available species: none.
HemiopsDejean, 1833: 95 (as “Hemiops. Eschscholtz.”)
Originally included available species: none.
HypocaelusDejean, 1833: 85 (as “Hypocaelus. Eschscholtz.”)
Originally included available species: Elater filum Fabricius, 1801.
Type species: Elater filum Fabricius, 1801 by monotypy.
Current status: junior objective synonym of Nematodes Berthold, 1827 in Eucnemidae (fideMuona 2007: 87).
Comments. The name “Buprestoides. Rossi.” listed from “Italia” by Dejean (1833: 85) cannot be interpreted and is considered a nomen nudum.
Lampetis Dejean, 1833: 76
Originally included available species: Buprestis bioculata Olivier, 1790; Buprestis catenulata Klug, 1829; Buprestis fastuosa Fabricius, 1775; Buprestis mimosae Klug, 1829.
Type species: Buprestis bioculata Olivier, 1790 by subsequent designation (Lacordaire 1857: 30).
Current status: valid genus in Buprestidae (fideBellamy 2008b: 892).
Lampra Dejean, 1833: 78 (as “Lampra. Megerle.”)
Originally included available species: Buprestis conspersa Gyllenhal, 1801; Buprestis festiva Linnaeus, 1767 (as “Festiva. Fabr.”); Buprestis plebeja Herbst, 1801; Buprestis rutilans Fabricius, 1777; Buprestis variolosa Paykull, 1799.
Type species: Buprestis rutilans Fabricius, 1777 (Opinion 1825 in ICZN 1996b).
Current status: junior homonym of Lampra Hübner, 1821 [Lepidoptera]; senior objective synonym of Lamprodila Motschulsky, 1860 in Buprestidae (fideBellamy 2008a: 600).
Comments. As pointed out by Mühle (1993: 28), the first valid type species designation for Lampra Dejean is that of Casey (1909: 52) who designated Buprestis festivaLinnaeus, 1767. However, the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN 1996b) ruled in Opinion 1825 that the type species of Scintillatrix Obenberger, 1956 is Buprestis rutilans Fabricius, 1777. Since Scintillatrix Obenberger is a replacement name for Lampra Dejean, both must have the same type species (ICZN 1999: Article 67.8).

Originally included available species: Buprestis depressa Linnaeus, 1771 (as “Depressa. Oliv.”); Buprestis porcata Fabricius, 1775.
Type species: Buprestis porcata Fabricius, 1775 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Buprestidae (fideBellamy 2008a: 365).
Comments. The name depressa is listed in synonymy with porcata in Dejean’s catalogue; therefore the type species of Polycesta is porcata by monotypy (ICZN 1999: Article 68.3).
Polychroma Dejean, 1833: 79
Originally included available species: Buprestis crenata Donovan, 1805; Buprestis decemmaculata Kirby, 1818; Buprestis rufipennis Kirby, 1818; Buprestis undulata Donovan, 1805.

Originally included available species: none.
Pristiptera Dejean, 1833: 78
Originally included available species: Buprestis blanda Fabricius, 1781.
Type species: Buprestis blanda Fabricius, 1781 by monotypy.
Current status: senior subjective synonym of Pelecopselaphus Solier, 1833 in Buprestidae (fideBellamy 2008a: 586).
Comments. Pelecopselaphus Solier, 1833 [type species: Buprestis angularis Schönherr, 1817] is currently considered a valid genus and treated as a senior synonym of Pristiptera Dejean, 1833 (e.g., Bellamy 2008a: 586). However Dejean’s name is older than Solier’s name (see “Precedence” section[1]). An application to the Commission is needed to conserve Pelecopselaphus Solier, 1833 as the valid name.

Fabr.”).
Type species: Lycus limbatus Fabricius, 1801 by present designation.
Current status: senior objective synonym of Calopteron Laporte, 1836 in Lycidae (fideBocák 1998: 249, as “Calopteron Castelnau, 1838”).
Comments. Charactus Dejean, 1833 has precedence over Calopteron Laporte, 1836 which is currently used as valid (e.g., Bocák 1998: 249, as “Calopteron Castelnau, 1838”). Reversal of Precedence (ICZN 1999: Article 23.9) or an application to the Commission is necessary to conserve usage of the name Calopteron Laporte. The genus Calopteron was first proposed by Laporte (1836: 25) for “Lycus limbatus, fasciatus, tricolor, bicolor… de Fabricius.” Its type species is Lycus limbatus Fabricius, 1801 by subsequent designation of Bocák (1998: 249).

Type species: Lampyris glauca Olivier, 1790 by present designation.
Current status: junior homonym of Pygolampis Germar, 1824 [Hemiptera] and Pygolampis Kirby and Spence, 1828 [Lampyridae]; senior subjective synonym of Robopus Motschulsky, 1853 in Lampyridae (fideMcDermot 1966: 50).
Comments. This generic name is not the same as Pygolampis Kirby and Spence, 1828, also in the family Lampyridae.
Pyractomena Dejean, 1833: 102
Originally included available species: none.
Rabdota Dejean, 1833: 100
Originally included available species: none.
Selas Dejean, 1833: 100
Originally included available species: Lampyris latreillei Kirby, 1818.
Type species: Lampyris latreillei Kirby, 1818 by monotypy.
Current status: junior objective synonym of Lamprocera Laporte, 1833 in Lampyridae (fideMcDermot 1966: 23).
Comments. The name Lamprocera Laporte, 1833 is older than Selas Dejean, 1833 (see “Precedence” section [2]).
Spenthera Dejean, 1833: 101
Originally included available species: none.
Xanthestha Dejean, 1833: 105
Originally included available species: Cantharis pectoralis Fabricius, 1801.

Originally included available species: none.
Xystrophorus
Dejean, 1833: 115
Originally included available species: none.
Pentamères: Clavicornes
CylistusDejean, 1833: 129 (as Cylistus. Godet.)
Originally included available species: Hister cylindricus Paykull, 1811.
Type species: Hister cylindricus Paykull, 1811 by monotypy.
Current status: valid subgenus of Platysoma Leach, 1817 in Histeridae (fideMazur 2011: 64).

Type species: none validly designated.
Current status: valid genus in Erotylidae (fideWegrzynowicz 2007b: 539).
Comments. The type species of Episcapha cited by Chûjô (1969: 95) and Wegrzynowicz (2007b: 539), Engis quadrimacula Wiedemann, 1823, is not an originally included species. No type species is designated here since all available species listed by Dejean are currently included in other genera or in subgenera of Episcapha other than the nominotypical one. In order to preserve stability in the nomenclature of the genus, an application to the Commission is needed to retain Engis quadrimacula Wiedemann, 1823 as type species even though the species is not an originally included species.
Haeterius Dejean, 1833: 128 (as Haeterius. Godet.)
Originally included available species: Hister ferrugineus Olivier, 1789; Hister quadratus Kugelann, 1794 (as “Quadratus. Paykull.”).
Type species: Hister quadratus Kugelann, 1794 (= Hister ferrugineus Olivier, 1789) by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Histeridae (fideMazur 2011: 125).
Comments. The name ferrugineus is listed in synonymy with quadratus in Dejean’s catalogue; therefore the type species of Haeterius is quadratus by monotypy (ICZN 1999: Article 68.3).
Hyporhagus Dejean, 1833: 129
Originally included available species: Tritoma marginata Fabricius, 1792.
Type species: Tritoma marginata Fabricius, 1792 by monotypy.

Lasioderma
Dejean, 1833: 119
Originally included available species: none.
Leionota Dejean, 1833: 129
Originally included available species: Hololepta lamina Paykull, 1811; Hister quadridentatus Olivier, 1789 (as “Quadridentata. Fabr.”).
Type species: Hister quadridentatus Olivier, 1789 by subsequent designation (Bickhardt 1916: 29).
Current status: valid subgenus of Hololepta Paykull, 1811 in Histeridae (fideMazur 2011: 52, as “Leionota Marseul, 1853”).
Monoplius Dejean, 1833: 128
Originally included available species: none.
Omalodes Dejean, 1833: 128
Originally included available species: Hister angulatus Fabricius, 1801 (as “Angulatus. Paykull.”); Hister laevigatus Quensel, 1806 (as “Laevigatus. Schönherr.”); Hister omega Kirby, 1818 (as “Omega. Mannerheim.”).
Type species: Hister omega Kirby, 1818 by subsequent designation (Hope 1840: 105).
Current status: valid genus in Histeridae (fideMazur 2011: 72).
Oxysternus Dejean, 1833: 129 (as Oxysternus. Godet.)
Originally included available species: Hister maxillosus Drury, 1782 (as “Maxillosus. Fabr.”).
Type species: Hister maxillosus Drury, 1782 (= Hister maximus Linnaeus, 1767) by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Histeridae (fideMazur 2011: 53).
Platyderus Dejean, 1833: 125
Originally included available species: none.
Selenoderus Dejean, 1833: 119
Originally included available species: none.
Thyreosoma Dejean, 1833: 119
Originally included available species: none.
Pentamères: Palpicornes
Cyclonotum Dejean, 1833: 134
Originally included available species: Sphaeridium abdominale Fabricius, 1792.
Type species: Sphaeridium abdominale Fabricius, 1792 by monotypy.
Current status: senior synonym of Dactylosternum Wollaston, 1854 in Hydrophilidae (new synonymy).
Comments. Cyclonotum is usually incorrectly credited to Erichson (1837a: 212), with Hydrophilus orbicularis Fabricius, 1775 as type species, and listed as a junior synonym of Coelostoma Brullé, 1835 (e.g., Hansen 1999: 242; Hansen 2004: 60). To promote nomenclatural stability a request to the Commission is necessary to suppress Cyclonotum Dejean, 1833 and conserve Dactylosternum Wollaston, 1854 as the valid name. Reversal of Precedence (ICZN 1999, Article 23.9) cannot be used to suppress Cyclonotum since the name was used as valid after 1899 (e.g., Régimbart 1906: 269).
Pentamères: Lamellicornes
Ablabera Dejean, 1833: 159
Originally included available species: Melolontha lateralis Wiedemann, 1821; Melolontha splendida Fabricius, 1781 (as “Splendida. Illiger.”).
Type species: Melolontha splendida Fabricius, 1781 by monotypy.

Comments: The name lateralis is listed in synonymy with splendida in Dejean’s catalogue; therefore the type species of Ablabera is splendida by monotypy (ICZN 1999: Article 68.3).
Acallus Dejean, 1833: 149
Originally included available species: none.
Acerus Dejean, 1833: 150
Originally included available species: none.
Adelops Dejean, 1833: 164
Originally included available species: none.
Adoretus Dejean, 1833: 157 (as “Adoretus. Eschscholtz.”)
Originally included available species: Melolontha compressa Weber, 1801; Melolontha lanata Fabricius, 1801; Melolontha nigrifrons Steven, 1809; Melolontha obscura Fabricius, 1781; Melolontha senegallia Dufour, 1821.
Type species: Melolontha nigrifrons Steven, 1809 by subsequent designation (Medvedev 1949: 313).
Current status: valid genus (fideKrál and Smetana 2006: 248, as “Adoretus Laporte, 1840”).
Comments. This generic name was first proposed by Dejean as an invalid synonym of Trigonostoma Dejean, 1833. It was treated before 1961 as an available name and adopted as the name of a taxon (e.g., Laporte 1840: 142). Krell (2007) commented on the authorship, date and type species of Adoretus.
Aegidium Dejean, 1833: 150
Originally included available species: none.
Aegostheta Dejean, 1833: 159
Originally included available species: Melolontha longicornis Fabricius, 1787.
Type species: Melolontha longicornis Fabricius, 1787 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Scarabaeidae (fideLacroix 2007: 203).
Amphicrania Dejean, 1833: 163
Originally included available species: Melolontha palpalis Eschscholtz, 1822.
Type species: Melolontha palpalis Eschscholtz, 1822 by monotypy.
Current status: junior objective synonym of Liogenys Guérin-Méneville, 1831 in Scarabaeidae (fideEvans 2003: 206).
Ancylonycha Dejean, 1833: 160
Originally included available species: Melolontha fervida Fabricius, 1775; Melolontha ilicis Knoch, 1801; Melolontha knochii Schönherr and Gyllenhal, 1817 (as “Knochii. Schönherr.”); Melolontha leucophthalma Wiedemann, 1819; Melolontha pilosicollis Knoch, 1801; Melolontha quercina Knoch, 1801; Melolontha serrata Fabricius, 1781.
Type species: Melolontha serrata Fabricius, 1781 by subsequent designation (Duponchel 1840: 481).
Current status: senior objective synonym of Holotrichia Hope, 1837 in Scarabaeidae (fideSaylor 1942: 157).
Comments. Ancylonycha Dejean, 1833 has precedence over Holotrichia Hope, 1837, which is considered as the valid name for the genus (e.g., Smetana and Král 2006: 218). Reversal of Precedence (ICZN 1999: Article 23.9) cannot be used because Ancylonycha Dejean was used as valid after 1899 (with Holotrichia as synonym) at least once by Saylor (1942: 157). Therefore an application to the Commission is necesssary to conserve usage of the name Holotrichia Hope.
Anisonchus Dejean, 1833: 157
Originally included available species: Melolontha atriplicis Fabricius, 1787.
Type species: Melolontha atriplicis Fabricius, 1787 by monotypy.
Current status: junior objective synonym of Hoplopus Laporte, 1832 in Scarabaeidae (fideHope 1837: 70).
Aplonycha Dejean, 1833: 162
Originally included available species: none.
Arctodium Dejean, 1833: 167
Originally included available species: none.
Aulacium Dejean, 1833: 137
Originally included available species: Scarabaeus novaehollandiae Fabricius sensu Dejean, 1833 (as “Hollandiae. Fabr.”).
Type species: Scarabaeus novaehollandiae Fabricius sensuDejean 1833 (= Aulacium carinatum Reiche, 1841) by monotypy.
Current status: senior objective synonym of Mentophilus Laporte, 1840 in Scarabaeidae (fideCassis and Weir 1992: 167, as “Aulacium Reiche”).
Comments. Scarabaeus hollandiae is treated here as an incorrect subsequent spelling of Scarabaeus novaehollandiae Fabricius, 1775 introduced by Fabricius (1781: 32).
According to the ICZN (1999: Article 70.3), an author who discovers that a type species was misidentified, which is the case here, may select, and thereby fix as type species, the nominal species previously cited as type species (e.g., Scarabaeus novaehollandiae Fabricius, 1775) or the taxonomic species actually involved in the misidentification (e.g., Aulacium carinatum Reiche, 1841). Scarabaeus novaehollandiae is currently the type species of the genus Tesserodon Hope, 1837 by monotypy and Aulacium carinatum is currently placed in the genus Mentophilus Laporte, 1840, as a junior synonym of Mentophilus hollandiae Laporte, 1840 (Cassis and Weir 1992: 167). However Laporte’s Mentophilus hollandiae is not an available species since Laporte (1840: 74) referred to Fabricius’ (1801: 57) Ateuchus hollandiae (as “Fabr., 1, 57, 14”) when he described the species. Aulacium carinatumReiche (1841: 211) is the valid name for the species currently know as Mentophilus hollandiae Laporte. We are selecting as type species of Aulacium Dejean the species actually involved in the misidentification, Aulacium carinatum Reiche, 1841. This makes Aulacium Dejean, 1833 a senior synonym of Mentophilus Laporte, 1840. An application to the Commission is necesssary to conserve usage of the name Mentophilus Laporte. We were unable to find 25 references in the last 50 years to qualify Mentophilus Laporte as nomen protectum (see ICZN 1999: Article 23.9.1).
Barybas Dejean, 1833: 164
Originally included available species: none.
Brachysternus Dejean, 1833: 154
Originally included available species: none.
Bubas Dejean, 1833: 143 (as “Bubas. Megerle.”)
Originally included available species: Scarabaeus bison Linnaeus, 1767 (as “Bison. Fabr.”); Onitis bubalus Olivier, 1812 (as “Bubalus. Latreille.”).
Type species: Scarabaeus bison Linnaeus, 1767 by subsequent designation (Janssens 1937: 135).
Current status: valid genus in Scarabaeidae (fideBezděk and Krell 2006: 158, as “Bubas Mulsant, 1842”).
Caelidia Dejean, 1833: 155
Originally included available species: none.
Caelodera Dejean, 1833: 159
Comments. This name is treated as a replacement name for Pachypus Dejean, 1821 [Scarabaeidae], a junior homonym of Pachypus Billberg, 1820 [Scarabaeidae]. However, Pachypus Billberg, 1820 is a nomen oblitum and Pachypus Dejean, 1821a nomen protectum following Bouchard et al. (2011: 253).
Callichloris Dejean, 1833: 155
Originally included available species: none.
Carteronyx Dejean, 1833: 162
Originally included available species: none.
Catalasis Dejean, 1833: 159
Originally included available species: Melolontha anketera Herbst, 1790; Melolontha australis Gyllenhal, 1817 (as “Australis. Schönherr.”); Melolontha occidentalis Fabricius, 1775; Melolontha orientalis Krynicki, 1832 (as “Orientalis. Ziegler.”); Melolontha pilosa Fabricius, 1792; Melolontha villosa Fabricius, 1781.
Type species: Melolontha villosa Fabricius, 1781 by subsequent designation (Bezděk 2006b: 191).
Current status: junior objective synonym of Anoxia Laporte, 1832 in Scarabaeidae (fideBezděk 2006b: 191).
Chalconotus Dejean, 1833: 136
Originally included available species: Scarabaeus cupreus Fabricius, 1775.
Type species: Scarabaeus cupreus Fabricius, 1775 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Scarabaeidae (fideBranco 2011: 12).
Comments. Until recently the name Chalconotus was attributed to Reiche (1841: 212) and considered a junior objective synonym of Anachalcos Hope, 1837. Branco (2011: 12) corrected the situation.
Chloenobia Dejean, 1833: 161
Originally included available species: none.
Chlorota Dejean, 1833: 154
Originally included available species: none.
Coprobas Dejean, 1833: 137
Originally included available species: none.
Coptorhinus Dejean, 1833: 152
Originally included available species: Scarabaeus retusus Fabricius, 1781.
Type species: Scarabaeus retusus Fabricius, 1781 by monotypy.
Current status: name suppressed in Scarabaeidae.
Comments. Coptorhinus Dejean, 1833 was placed in Opinion 1838 on the Official Index of Rejected and Invalid Generic Names in Zoology for the purposes of the Principle of Priority but not for the Principle of Homonymy (ICZN 1996d: 134).
Cryptodon Dejean, 1833: 150 (as “Cryptodon. Latreille. ”)
Originally included available species: none.
Dasysterna Dejean, 1833: 159
Originally included available species: none.
Dorysthaetus Dejean, 1833: 154
Originally included available species: none.
Encya Dejean, 1833: 159
Originally included available species: Melolontha commersonii Olivier, 1789.
Type species: Melolontha commersonii Olivier, 1789 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Scarabaeidae (fideLacroix 1993: 341).
Epicaulis Dejean, 1833: 164
Originally included available species: none.
Epichloris Dejean, 1833: 155
Originally included available species: Brachysternus prasinus Guérin-Méneville, 1831 (as “Prasina. d’Urville.”).
Type species: Brachysternus prasinus Guérin-Méneville, 1831 by monotypy.
Current status: junior objective synonym of Brachysternus Guérin-Méneville, 1831 (fideGemminger and Harold 1869: 1231).
Epirinus Dejean, 1833: 137
Originally included available species: Canthon aeneus Wiedemann, 1823; Scarabaeus granulatus Olivier, 1789.
Type species: Scarabaeus granulatus Olivier, 1789 (=Scarabaeus flagellatus Fabricius, 1775) by subsequent designation (Scholtz and Howden 1987: 122).
Current status: valid genus in Scarabaeidae (fideMedina and Scholtz 2005: 147, as “Epirinus Reiche, 1841”).
Comments. Scholtz and Howden (1987: 122) designated Scarabaeus flagellatus Fabricius, 1775 as the type of Epirinus (as “Epirinus Reiche”), a species not originally included. However since they placed at the same time that species in synonymy with Scarabaeus granulatus Olivier, 1789, a species originally included, they are deemed to have designated the latter species as type species (ICZN 1999: Article 69.2.2). Janssens (1938: 12) also designated Scarabaeus flagellatus Fabricius, 1775 as type species of Epirinus (as “Epirinus Reiche”) but he did not list the species in synonymy with Scarabaeus granulatus Olivier, 1789.
Eriesthis Dejean, 1833: 167
Originally included available species: none.
Eucheirus Dejean, 1833: 140
Originally included available species: none.
Eucranium Dejean, 1833: 135
Originally included available species: none.
Geobatus Dejean, 1833: 164
Originally included available species: none.
Gromphas Dejean, 1833: 143
Originally included available species: none.
Gymnogaster Dejean, 1833: 159
Originally included available species: none.
Gymnoloma Dejean, 1833: 167
Originally included available species: Melolontha atomaria Fabricius, 1781.
Type species: Melolontha atomaria Fabricius, 1781 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Scarabaeidae (fideDombrow 2001: 107 as “Gymnoloma Burmeister, 1844”).
Heteronychus Dejean, 1833: 152
Originally included available species: Scarabaeus aries Fabricius, 1781; Geotrupes cricetus Hausmann, 1807; Scarabaeus morator Fabricius, 1798; Scarabaeus piceus Fabricius, 1775; Scarabaeus syrichtus Fabricius, 1775.
Type species: Geotrupes cricetus Hausmann, 1807 by subsequent designation (Krell 2002: 40).
Current status: valid genus in Scarabaeidae (fideKrell 2006: 280).
Comments: The first valid typification for Heteronychus Dejean is that of Duponchel (1845: 601) who selected Scarabaeus syrichtus Fabricius, 1775. However, this species is currently placed in the genus Syrictes Prell, 1936 (e.g., Endrödi 1985: 685). An application to the Commission to reject the typification of Duponchel is needed in order to keep using the current taxonomic concepts of Heteronychus and Syrictes. It appears that Syrictes Prell is itself a preoccupied genus name (not Syrictes Jordan & Evermann, 1927 [Pisces]) and needs a replacement name.
Hoplites Dejean, 1833: 150
Originally included available species: Scarabaeus enema Fabricius, 1787; Scarabaeus pan Fabricius, 1775.
Type species: none found.
Current status: senior synonym of Enema Hope, 1837 (fideRatcliffe 2003: 295).
Comments. Hoplites Dejean, 1833 was treated as a nomen oblitum and Enema Hope, 1837 a nomen protectum by Ratcliffe (2003: 295). However, the name was suppressed by the Commission for both the Principle of Priority and Principle of Homonymy in Opinion 353 (ICZN 1955).
Hybalus Dejean, 1833: 149
Originally included available species: Geobius cornifrons Brullé, 1832 (as “Cornifrons. Dej.”); Scarabaeus glabratus Fabricius, 1792 (as “Glabratus. Paykull.”).
Type species: Geobius cornifrons Brullé, 1832 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Scarabaeidae (fideLópez-Colón 2006: 179).
Comments: The name glabratus is listed in synonymy with cornifrons in Dejean’s catalogue; therefore the type species of Hybalus is cornifrons by monotypy (ICZN 1999: Article 68.3).
Hyperis Dejean, 1833: 167
Originally included available species: Hoplia eversmanni Faldermann, 1833.
Type species: Hoplia eversmanni Faldermann, 1833 (= Hoplia paupera Krynicki, 1832) by monotypy.
Current status: valid subgenus of Hoplia Illiger, 1803 in Scarabaeidae (fideSmetana 2006: 188).
Comments. The date of publication of volume 6 of the Bulletin de la Société Impériale des Naturalistes de Moscou, where the species Hoplia eversmanni Faldermann was published, is unknown besides the year. The permit for publication was delivered on 16 March 1833 [Julian calendar = 28 March 1833 for the Gregorian calendar] and suggests that the actual date of publication preceeds that of the second livraison of Dejean’s catalogue recorded on 27 July 1833. Hyperis was considered as available and credited to Dejean in recent publications (e.g., Hardy 1977: 6; Smetana and Smith 2006: 50; Smetana 2006: 188). To promote stability we consider that Hoplia eversmanni Faldermann, 1833 was available before the publication of Dejean’s catalogue despite that the date of publication of the Bulletin should theoretically be the last day of the year (ICZN 1999: 21.3.2). An application to the Commission may be necessary in this case.
Hyporhiza Dejean, 1833: 162
Originally included available species: Melolontha hypocrita Mannerheim, 1829.
Type species: Melolontha hypocrita Mannerheim, 1829 by monotypy.
Current status: junior subjective synonym of Rhinaspis Perty, 1830 in Scarabaeidae (new synonymy).
Comments. Hyporhiza Dejean is a senior objective synonym of Ulomenes Blanchard, 1850. Ulomenes was used as the valid name for this genus (e.g., Evans 2003: 346) until Katovich (2008: 1) synonymized Ulomenes Blanchard with Rhinaspis Perty.
Lagosterna Dejean, 1833: 159
Originally included available species: none.
Lasiopus Dejean, 1833: 164
Originally included available species: none.
Leocaeta Dejean, 1833: 159
Originally included available species: Melolontha alopex Fabricius, 1787.
Type species: Melolontha alopex Fabricius, 1787 by monotypy.
Current status: senior synonym of Sparrmannia Laporte, 1840 in Scarabaeidae (fideDalla Torre 1913: 291).
Comments. Leocaeta Dejean, 1833is a nomen oblitum and Sparrmannia Laporte, 1840 a nomen protectum following Bouchard et al. (2011: 255).
Leptopus Dejean, 1833: 159
Originally included available species: none.
Leucopholis Dejean, 1833: 160
Originally included available species: Melolontha alba Olivier, 1789 (as “Alba. Fabr.”); Melolontha hypoleuca Wiedemann, 1819; Melolontha rorida Fabricius, 1801; Melolontha stigma Fabricius, 1794.
Type species: Melolontha rorida Fabricius, 1801 by subsequent designation (Bezděk 2006a: 33).
Current status: valid genus in Scarabaeidae (fideBezděk 2006b: 190).
MacrothopsDejean, 1833: 164 (as “Macrothops. Mac Leay.”)
Originally included available species: none.
Mallogaster Dejean, 1833: 162
Originally included available species: none.
Microplus Dejean, 1833: 166
Originally included available species: none.
Myoderma Dejean, 1833: 168
Originally included available species: Stripsypher sordidus Gory and Percheron, 1833 (as “Sordida. Dej.”).
Type species: Stripsypher sordidus Gory and Percheron, 1833 (= Trichius alutaceum Afzelius, 1817) by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Scarabaeidae (fideRicchiardi and Gill 2009: 147 as “Myodermum Burmeister and Schaum, 1840”).
Comments. The name Stripsypher sordidus Gory and Percheron, 1833 was published and validated as “sordidus. Dej.” in the first livraison of Gory and Percheron’s Monographie des cétoines et genres voisins which was issued before the second livraison of Dejean’s catalogue (see “Precedence” section [3]). The second species listed by Dejean (1833: 168), “Fuliginosa. Dej.,” is not in Gory and Percheron’s publication.
This generic name is usually credited to Burmeister and Schaum (1840: 396) under the spelling Myodermum (e.g. Smith 2006: 178; Ricchiardi and Gill 2009: 147). This spelling is in prevailing usage but not attributed to the original author (see ICZN 1999: Article 33.3.1). Therefore the original spelling used by Dejean must be retained.
Onthocharis Dejean, 1833: 144
Originally included available species: none.
Onthoecus Dejean, 1833: 140
Originally included available species: none.
Ootoma Dejean, 1833: 163
Originally included available species: none.
Orthognatus Dejean, 1833: 174
Originally included available species: none.
Oxyomus Dejean, 1833: 147 (as “Oxyomus. Eschscholtz.”)
Originally included available species: Scarabaeus asper Fabricius, 1775; Aphodius bicolor Say, 1823; Scarabaeus caesus Creutzer, 1796 (as “Caesus. Fabr.”); Scarabaeus porcatus Fabricius, 1775; Scarabaeus sabuleti Panzer, 1797 (as “Sabuleti. Fabr.”); Scarabaeus stercorator Fabricius, 1775; Aphodius strigatus Say, 1823.
Type species: Scarabaeus porcatus Fabricius, 1775 (= Scarabaeus sylvestris Scopoli, 1763) by subsequent designation (Westwood 1838: 23).
Current status: valid genus in Scarabaeidae (fideDellacasa and Dellacasa 2006: 141).
Pachylus Dejean, 1833: 152
Originally included available species: none.
PhilochloeniaDejean, 1833: 163
Originally included available species: Melolontha elongata Fabricius, 1792; Melolontha filitarsis Germar, 1824.
Type species: Melolontha filitarsis Germar, 1824 (= Melolontha rufipennis Fabricius, 1801) by subsequent designation (Chevrolat 1847a: 735).
Current status: valid genus in Scarabaeidae (fideBouchard et al. 2011: 251).
Comments. Smith and Evans (2005: 40) designated Melolontha elongata Fabricius, 1792 as type species of Philochloenia which made the name a junior synonym of Dichelonyx Harris, 1827. However there is a valid earlier typification which makes Philochloenia a senior synonym of Anoplosiagum Blanchard, 1850 in the Melolonthinae (Scarabaeidae). Bouchard et al. (2011: 251) used the second approach and this seems the best avenue (Andrew Smith personal communication 2012).
Phytolaema Dejean, 1833: 162
Originally included available species: none.
Platycheira Dejean, 1833: 157
Originally included available species: none.
Platycoelia Dejean, 1833: 154
Originally included available species: Melolontha flavostriata Latreille, 1813.
Type species: Melolontha flavostriata Latreille, 1813 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Scarabaeidae (fideSmith 2003: 31).
Podalgus Dejean, 1833: 152
Originally included available species: none.
Psalicerus Dejean, 1833: 174
Originally included available species: Lucanus femoratus Fabricius, 1775; Lucanus ibex Billberg, 1820 (as “Ibex. Sahlberg.”).
Type species: Lucanus femoratus Fabricius, 1775 by present designation.
Current status: senior objective synonym of Leptinopterus Hope, 1838 in Lucanidae (fideKrajčik 2001: 27).
Comments. Psalicerus Dejean, 1833 has precedence over Leptinopterus Hope, 1838 which is currently used as valid (e.g., Krajčik 2001: 27). Reversal of Precedence (ICZN 1999: Article 23.9) or an application to the Commission is necessary to conserve usage of the name Leptinopterus Hope.
Pygurus Dejean, 1833: 137
Originally included available species: none.
Rhinyptia Dejean, 1833: 157
Originally included available species: none.
Rhizobia Dejean, 1833: 157
Originally included available species: none.
Ryparus Dejean, 1833: 144
Originally included available species: none.
Schizonycha Dejean, 1833: 161
Originally included available species: Melolontha cylindrica Gyllenhal, 1817 (as “Cylindrica. Schönherr.”); Scarabaeus globator Fabricius, 1781; Melolontha henningii Fischer von Waldheim, 1823 (as “Henningii. Gebler.”); Melolontha moesta Say, 1825.
Type species: Scarabaeus globator Fabricius, 1781 by subsequent designation (Pope 1960: 68).
Current status: valid genus in Scarabaeidae (fideSmetana and Král 2006: 228).
Sciuropus Dejean, 1833: 162
Originally included available species: Melolontha rufipes Latreille, 1813.
Type species: Melolontha rufipes Latreille, 1813 by monotypy.
Current status: senior subjective synonym of Ancistrosoma Curtis, 1835 in Scarabaeidae (fideDalla Torre 1913: 338).
Comments. Sciuropus Dejean, 1833 has precedence over Ancistrosoma Curtis, 1835 which is currently used as valid (e.g., Evans 2003: 224). Reversal of Precedence (ICZN 1999: Article 23.9) or an application to the Commission is necessary to conserve usage of the name Ancistrosoma Curtis, 1835.
Sericesthis Dejean, 1833: 164
Originally included available species: none.
Sphaeromorphus Dejean, 1833: 147 (as “Sphaeromorphus. Germar.”)
Originally included available species (from Germar 1843): Sphaeromorphus basilicus Germar, 1843; Sphaeromorphus bicinctus Germar, 1843; Sphaeromorphus chalceus Germar, 1843; Sphaeromorphus ebeninus Erichson, 1843; Sphaeromorphus globulus Erichson, 1843; Sphaeromorphus humeralis Erichson, 1843; Sphaeromorphus nanus Germar, 1843; Sphaeromorphus nitidus Germar, 1843; Sphaeromorphus politus Erichson, 1843; Sphaeromorphus pyritosus Erichson, 1843; Sphaeromorphus semipunctatus Germar, 1843; Sphaeromorphus semistriatus Germar, 1843; Sphaeromorphus seriatus Erichson, 1843; Sphaeromorphus sesquistriatus Germar, 1843; Sphaeromorphus volvox Erichson, 1843.
Type species: Sphaeromorphus humeralis Erichson, 1843 by present designation.
Current status: senior subjective synonym of Ceratocanthus White, 1842 in Scarabaeidae (fideHowden and Gill 2000: 289, as “Sphaeromorphus Germar”).
Comments. This generic name was proposed by Dejean as an invalid synonym of Acanthocerus Macleay, 1819. It is available because it was treated before 1961 as an available name and adopted as the name of a taxon (e.g., Germar 1843: 111). All the species listed by Dejean (1833: 147) under this name are unavailable. The first species (cited by available names) directly associated with the name Sphaeromorphus are those cited by Germar (1843: 114–124).
Sphaeromorphus Dejean, 1833 has precedence over Ceratocanthus White, 1842. Reversal of Precedence (ICZN 1999: Article 23.9) or an application to the Commission is necessary to retain Ceratocanthus White as a valid taxon.
Spilota Dejean, 1833: 155

Streptocerus Dejean, 1833: 174
Originally included available species: none.
Strigidia Dejean, 1833: 155

TarandusDejean, 1833: 174 (as “Tarandus. Megerle.”)
Originally included available species: Lucanus tenebrioides Fabricius, 1787.
Type species: Lucanus tenebrioides Fabricius, 1787 (= Lucanus chrysomelinus Hochenwarth, 1785) by monotypy.
Current status: junior homonym of Tarandus Billberg, 1827 [Mammalia]; junior objective synonym of Ceruchus MacLeay, 1819 in Lucanidae (fideKrajčik 2001: 4).

Type species: Melolontha lanata Fabricius, 1801 by subsequent designation (Machatschke 1972: 310).
Current status: junior homonym of Trigonostoma Blainville, 1825 [Mollusca]; senior objective synonym of Adoroleptus Brenske, 1893 in Scarabaeidae (fideMachatschke 1972: 310; Willems and Krell 2007: 220).
Trionychus Dejean, 1833: 150
Originally included available species: none.
Xylonichus Dejean, 1833: 155 (as “Xylonichus. Mac Leay.”)
Originally included available species: none.
Hétéromères: Mélasomes
Acisba Dejean, 1834: 185 (as “Acisba. Ziegler.”)
Originally included available species: Tentyria brevis Besser, 1832 (as “Brevis. Solier”); Tentyria cribrosa Besser, 1832 (as “Cribrosa. Solier”); Tentyria subovata Besser, 1832 (as “Subovata. Kollar.).
Type species: Tentyria cribrosa Besser, 1832 (= Pimelia punctata Fabricius, 1798) by subsequent designation (Löbl et al. 2008a: 40).
Current status: junior objective synonym of Pachychila Eschscholtz, 1831 in Tenebrionidae (fideLöbl et al. 2008b: 199).
Aethales Dejean, 1834: 180
Originally included available species: Epitragus brunnicornis Latreille, 1811.
Type species: Epitragus brunnicornis Latreille, 1811 by monotypy.
Current status: junior synonym of Epitragus Latreille, 1802 in Tenebrionidae (new synonymy).
Comments. Epitragus brunnicornis Latreille is listed as a species incertae sedis in the genus Epitragus Latreille by Freude (1967: 176).
Amatodes Dejean, 1834: 189
Originally included available species: Pimelia gemmata Fabricius, 1801.
Type species: Pimelia gemmata Fabricius, 1801 by monotypy.
Current status: senior synonym of Oncosoma Westwood, 1843 in Tenebrionidae (fide Gebien 1943: 905, as “Amatodes Solier, 1844”).
Comments. Amatodes Dejean, 1834 has precedence over Oncosoma Westwood, 1843 which is currently used as valid (e.g., Robiche 2008: 525). Reversal of Precedence (ICZN 1999, Article 23.9) or an application to the Commission is necessary to conserve usage of the name Oncosoma Westwood, 1843.
Amphysus Dejean, 1834: 189
Originally included available species: none.
Arctylus Dejean, 1834: 180 (as “Arctylus. Solier.”)
Originally included available species: Praocis pentagonus Lacordaire, 1830.
Type species: Praocis pentagonus Lacordaire, 1830 by monotypy.
Current status: junior subjective synonym of Praocis Eschscholtz, 1829 in Tenebrionidae (new synonymy).
Comments. Two of the species included by Dejean (1834: 180) in this genus were described earlier by Lacordaire (1830: 286) as “N… ursinus” and “N… dasypoides” where “N…” possibly stands for “nouveau” [new] but unnamed genus, not Nyctelia as recorded by Sherborn in his Index Animalium. According to Article 11.9.3 (ICZN 1999), a species-group name must be published in unambiguous combination with a generic name. This is not the case and so Lacordaire’s species are considered unavailable.
The species ursinus was made available by Guérin-Méneville (1834: plate 105) in volume 4 of the Magasin de Zoologie. We were unable to find any precise date of publication for that volume. Therefore we consider that the name was not available before the publication of the third livraison of Dejean’s catalogue.
Praocis pentagonus Lacordaire is listed as a species incertae sedis in the genus Praocis Eschscholtz by Vidal and Guerrero (2007: 74).
Blacodes Dejean, 1834: 190
Originally included available species: none.
Brachygenius Dejean, 1834: 186 (as “Brachygenius. Solier.”)
Originally included available species: none.

Originally included available species: Pimelia clavaria Faldermann, 1832; Pimelia metopotapha Fischer von Waldheim, 1832; Pimelia musiva Faldermann, 1832.
Type species: Pimelia musiva Faldermann, 1832 by subsequent designation (Bouchard et al. 2007: 388).
Current status: senior synonym of Pachyscelis Solier, 1836 in Tenebrionidae (fideLöbl et al. 2008b: 154).
Comments. Brachyscelis Dejean, 1834is a nomen oblitum and Pachyscelis Solier, 1836 a nomen protectum following Bouchard et al. (2007: 388).
Bradytes Dejean, 1834: 182
Originally included available species: none.
Comments. The sole species included by Dejean (1834: 182) in this genus was described earlier by Lacordaire (1830: 287) as “N… strangulatus” where “N…” possibly stands for “nouveau” [new] but unnamed genus, not Nyctelia as recorded by Sherborn in his Index Animalium. According to Article 11.9.3 (ICZN 1999), a species-group name must be published in unambiguous combination with a generic name. This is not the case and so Lacordaire’s species is considered unavailable.
Bradyus Dejean, 1834: 190
Originally included available species: Erodius pygmaeus Fischer von Waldheim, 1821.
Type species: Erodius pygmaeus Fischer von Waldheim, 1821 by monotypy.

Originally included available species: none.
Calymmaphorus Dejean, 1834: 180 (as “Calymmaphorus. Solier.”)
Originally included available species: none.
Comments. The sole species included by Dejean in this genus was described earlier by Lacordaire (1830: 286) as “N… cucullatus” where “N…” possibly stands for “nouveau” [new] but unnamed genus, not Nyctelia as recorded by Sherborn in his Index Animalium. According to Article 11.9.3 (ICZN 1999), a species-group name must be published in unambiguous combination with a generic name. This is not the case and so Lacordaire’s species is considered unavailable.
Cephalostenus Dejean, 1834: 183 (as “Cephalostenus. Solier.”)
Originally included available species: none.
Cilibe Dejean, 1834: 187 (as “Cilibe. Latreille.”)
Originally included available species: none.
Colposcelis Dejean, 1834: 185 (as “Colposcelis. Solier.”)

Gebler.”); Tentyria subquadrata Tauscher, 1812; Tentyria undulata Gebler, 1832 (as “Undulata. Mannerheim”).
Type species: Tentyria longicollis Zoubkoff, 1833 by subsequent designation (Gebien 1937: 598).
Current status: valid genus in Tenebrionidae (fideLöbl et al. 2008b: 186).
Comphosida Dejean, 1834: 184 (as “Comphosida. Solier.”)
Originally included available species: none.
Coronus Dejean, 1834: 192
Originally included available species: none.
Cyrtoderes Dejean, 1834: 181 (as “Cyrtoderes. Solier.”)
Originally included available species: Tenebrio cristatus DeGeer, 1778 (as “Cristatus. Fab.”); Sepidium lacunosum Thunberg, 1784.
Type species: Sepidium lacunosum Thunberg, 1784 (= Tenebrio cristatus DeGeer, 1778) by present designation.
Current status: senior synonym of Phligra Laporte, 1840 in Tenebrionidae (fideGebien 1910: 149, as “Cyrtoderes Solier, 1844”).
Comments. Cyrtoderes Dejean, 1834 has precedence over Phligra Laporte, 1840 which is currently used as valid (e.g., Koch 1955: 46). Reversal of Precedence (ICZN 1999: Article 23.9) or an application to the Commission is necessary to conserve usage of the name Phligra Laporte, 1840.
Dicrossa Dejean, 1834: 181 (as “Dicrossa. Klug.”)
Originally included available species: none.
Echinotus Dejean, 1834: 181
Originally included available species: none.
Entomoderes Dejean, 1834: 186 (as “Entomoderes. Solier.”)
Originally included available species: none.
Comments. One of the species included by Dejean (1834: 186) in this genus was described earlier by Lacordaire (1830: 281) as “N… erebi” where “N…” possibly stands for “nouveau” [new] but unnamed genus, not Nyctelia as recorded by Sherborn in his Index Animalium. According to Article 11.9.3 (ICZN 1999), a species-group name must be published in unambiguous combination with a generic name. This is not the case and so Lacordaire’s species is considered unavailable.
Epilasium Dejean, 1834: 192
Originally included available species: none.
Epiphysa Dejean, 1834: 178
Originally included available species: Pimelia flavicollis Fabricius, 1794; Pimelia inflata Olivier, 1795.
Type species: Pimelia flavicollis Fabricius, 1794 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Tenebrionidae (fideBouchard et al. 2005: 507).
Comments: The name inflata is listed in synonymy with flavicollis in Dejean’s catalogue; therefore the type species of Epiphysa is flavicollis by monotypy (ICZN 1999: Article 68.3).
Hadrus Dejean, 1834: 192
Originally included available species: none.
Heliopates Dejean, 1834: 191
Comments. This name is treated as a replacement name for Heliophilus Dejean, 1821 [Tenebrionidae], a junior homonym of Heliophilus Meigen, 1803 [Diptera]. Heliophilus Dejean is currently listed as an invalid synonym of Phylan Dejean, 1821 [type species: Pedinus hybridus Latreille, 1804] (Löbl et al. 2008: 282) and Heliopates Dejean should also be a junior synonym of Phylan Dejean. However, Heliopates Dejean, 1834 is currently considered a valid genus (Löbl et al. 2008: 279) with Tenebrio lusitanicus Herbst, 1797 as type species. To promote stability, we believe the best avenue would be to submit an application to the Commission to retain Tenebrio lusitanicus Herbst as type species of Heliopates Dejean, 1834.
Herpiscius Dejean, 1834: 183
Originally included available species: none.
Hipomelus Dejean, 1834: 181
Originally included available species: Sepidium acuminatum Quensel, 1806 (as “Acuminatus. Schöenherr.”); Sepidium vittatum Fabricius, 1781.
Type species: Sepidium vittatum Fabricius, 1781 by subsequent designation (Hope 1840: 116).
Current status: junior subjective synonym of Trachynotus Latreille, 1828 in Tenebrionidae (new synonymy).
Lasiostola Dejean, 1834: 179
Originally included available species: Pimelia hirta Fischer von Waldheim, 1820; Tenebrio pubescens Pallas, 1781.
Type species: Tenebrio pubescens Pallas, 1781 by subsequent designation (Hope 1840: 118).
Current status: valid genus in Tenebrionidae (fideLöbl et al. 2008b: 152).

Current status: junior objective synonym of Melanimon Steven, 1829 in Tenebrionidae (fideLöbl et al. 2008b: 258).
Morica Dejean, 1834: 182
Originally included available species: Tenebrio grossa Linnaeus, 1767 (as “Grossa. Olivier.”); Akis planata Fabricius, 1801.
Type species: Akis planata Fabricius, 1801 by subsequent designation (Hope 1840: 122).
Current status: valid genus in Tenebrionidae (fideLöbl et al. 2008b: 127).
Nosoderma Dejean, 1834: 186
Originally included available species: none.
Notha Dejean, 1834: 182 (as “Notha. Eschscholtz.”)
Comments. This name was listed by Dejean as an invalid synonym of Scotera Dejean, 1834, a nomen nudum. Therefore, Notha Dejean is not available.
Notocorax Dejean, 1834: 191
Originally included available species: Opatrum javanum Wiedemann, 1819.
Type species: Opatrum javanum Wiedemann, 1819 by monotypy.

Pachypterus Dejean, 1834: 192 (as “Pachypterus. Solier.”)
Originally included available species: none.
Pandarus Dejean, 1834: 191 (as “Pandarus. Megerle.”)
Comments. This name is treated as an unjustified emendation of Dendarus Dejean, 1821 [Tenebrionidae] (fideLöbl et al. 2008b: 277).
Pelecyphorus Dejean, 1834: 186 (as “Pelecyphorus. Solier.”)

Originally included available species: Praocis dilaticollis Lacordaire, 1830; Praocis gravidus Lacordaire, 1830.
Type species: Praocis dilaticollis Lacordaire, 1830 by subsequent designation (Desmarest 1860: 142).
Current status: valid genus in Tenebrionidae (fideGebien 1938: 79, as “Platyholmus Solier, 1840”).
Prionotheca Dejean, 1834: 179 (as “Prionotheca. Solier.”)
Originally included available species: Pimelia coronata Olivier, 1795.
Type species: Pimelia coronata Olivier, 1795 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Tenebrionidae (fideLöbl et al. 2008b: 165).
Psorodes Dejean, 1834: 189
Comments. This genus is treated as a replacement name for Acanthomera Latreille, 1828 [Tenebrionidae], a junior homonym of Acanthomera Wiedemann, 1821 [Diptera].
Pterocoma Dejean, 1834: 178 (as “Pterocoma. Solier.”)
Originally included available species: Pimelia piligera Gebler, 1830.
Type species: Pimelia piligera Gebler, 1830 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Tenebrionidae (fideLöbl et al. 2008b: 166).
Pterolasia Dejean, 1834: 179 (as “Pterolasia. Solier.”)
Originally included available species: none.
Sciaca Dejean, 1834: 184
Originally included available species: none.
Comments. The two species included by Dejean (1834: 184) in this genus were described earlier by Lacordaire (1830: 286) as “N… tentyrioides” and “N… antarctica” where “N…” possibly stands for “nouveau” [new] but unnamed genus, not Nyctelia as recorded by Sherborn in his Index Animalium. According to Article 11.9.3 (ICZN 1999), a species-group name must be published in unambiguous combination with a generic name. This is not the case and so Lacordaire’s species are considered unavailable.
The species tentyrioides was made available by Guérin-Méneville (1834: 12) in volume 4 of the Magasin de Zoologie. We were unable to find any precise date of publication for that volume. Therefore we consider that the name was not available before the publication of the third livraison of Dejean’s catalogue.
Sclerum Dejean, 1834: 193
Originally included available species: Opatrum ferrugineum Fabricius, 1801 (as “Ferrugineum. Eschsch. Fabr?”); Opatrum foveolatum Olivier, 1811; Opatrum orientale Fabricius, 1775.
Type species: Opatrum orientale Fabricius, 1775 by subsequent designation (Hope 1840: 110).
Current status: valid genus in Tenebrionidae (fideLöbl et al. 2008b: 274).

Type species: Helops rufopictus Wiedemann, 1823 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Tenebrionidae (fide Gebien 1942b: 757, as “Zophius Brême, 1842”).
Zophobius Dejean, 1834: 180
Originally included available species: none.
Comments. The sole species included by Dejean (1834: 180) in this genus was described earlier by Lacordaire (1830: 286) as “N… erotyloides” where “N…” possibly stands for “nouveau” [new] but unnamed genus, not Nyctelia as recorded by Sherborn in his Index Animalium. According to Article 11.9.3 (ICZN 1999), a species-group name must be published in unambiguous combination with a generic name. This is not the case and so Lacordaire’s species is considered unavailable.

Originally included available species: none.
Delognatha Dejean, 1834: 200
Originally included available species: none.
Eleoma Dejean, 1834: 195 (as “Eleoma. Ziegler.”)
Comments. This name was listed by Dejean as an invalid synonym of Lithophilus Frölich, 1799. It has not been treated before 1961 as an available name and adopted as the name of a taxon or treated as a senior homonym and therefore Eleoma Dejean, 1834 is unavailable. Eleoma was first proposed, also as an invalid synonym of Lithophilus, by Fischer von Waldheim (1829: 73).
Endophloeus
Dejean, 1834: 195
Originally included available species: Eledona spinosula Latreille, 1807.
Type species: Eledona spinosula Latreille, 1807 (= Sylpha markovichiana Piller and Mitterpacher, 1783) by monotypy.

Originally included available species: Tenebrio biimpressus Latreille, 1833.
Type species: Tenebrio biimpressus Latreille, 1833 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Tenebrionidae (fideAalbu et al. 2002a: 497).
Comments. The name “Tricornis. P[alisot de].B[eauvois].” listed from “Amer. bor.” by Dejean (1834: 199) is not considered the same as Phaleria tricornis Dalman, 1823 described from specimens collected in Jamaica.
Hypsoderes Dejean, 1834: 195
Originally included available species: none.
Margus
Dejean, 1834: 200

Type species: Tenebrio ferrugineus Fabricius, 1787 (= Colydium castaneum Herbst, 1797) by monotypy.
Current status: junior objective synonym of Tribolium MacLeay, 1825 in Tenebrionidae (fideLöbl et al. 2008b: 301).
Comments: The name castaneus is listed in synonymy with ferrugineus in Dejean’s catalogue; therefore the type species of Margus is ferrugineus by monotypy (ICZN 1999: Article 68.3).
Phloeonemus Dejean, 1834: 195
Originally included available species: none.
Phtora Dejean, 1834: 200

Originally included available species: none.
Euphron Dejean, 1834: 206
Originally included available species: Helops coerulescens Guérin-Méneville, 1831 (as “coerulescens. d’Urville.”).
Type species: Helops coerulescens Guérin-Méneville, 1831 by monotypy.
Current status: senior subjective synonym of Derosphaerus Thomson, 1858 in Tenebrionidae (new synonymy).
Comments. Euphron Dejean, 1834 has precedence over Derosphaerus Thomson, 1858 which is currently used as valid (e.g., Löbl et al. 2008b: 340). Reversal of Precedence (ICZN 1999: Article 23.9) or an application to the Commission is necessary to conserve usage of the name Derosphaerus Thomson, 1858.
The type species, Helops coerulescens, is described in Boisduval (1835: 269, as “Helops caerulescens d’Urville”) who referred to Helops coerulescensGuérin-Méneville (1831: pl. 5, fig. 3).
Geoborus Dejean, 1834: 203
Originally included available species: none.

Originally included available species: Hemicera arcuata Laporte and Brullé, 1831.
Type species: Hemicera arcuata Laporte and Brullé, 1831 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Tenebrionidae (fide Gebien 1942a: 333, as “Hypocalis Lac[ordaire, 1859]”).
Ichthydion Dejean, 1834: 202
Originally included available species: none.
Imatismus
Dejean, 1834: 202
Originally included available species: Helops fasciculatus Fabricius, 1798; Stenosis orientalis Herbst, 1799.
Type species: Helops fasciculatus Fabricius, 1798 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Tenebrionidae (fideLöbl et al. 2008b: 193).
Comments. The name orientalis is listed in synonymy with fasciculatus in Dejean’s catalogue; therefore the type species of Imatismus is fasciculatus by monotypy (ICZN 1999: Article 68.3).
Iphicerus Dejean, 1834: 203
Originally included available species: none.
Iphius Dejean, 1834: 203
Originally included available species: Tenebrio serratus Fabricius, 1775.
Type species: Tenebrio serratus Fabricius, 1775 by monotypy.
Current status: junior homonym of Iphius Schoenherr, 1823 [Curculionidae]; senior subjective synonym of Prioscelis Hope, 1840 in Tenebrionidae (fideGemminger and Harold 1870: 1991).
Iphthinus Dejean, 1834: 203
Originally included available species: Blaps clypeatus Germar, 1813; Upis chrysops Herbst, 1797; Tenebrio gigas Linnaeus, 1763 (as “Gigas. Fabr.”); Tenebrio impressus Fabricius, 1801; Upis maxima Germar, 1824; Helops punctatus Fabricius, 1801; Helops sinuatus Fabricius, 1801; Tenebrio valgus Wiedemann, 1823; Tenebrio variolosus DeGeer, 1775 (as “Variolosus. Fabr.”).
Type species: Tenebrio gigas Linnaeus, 1763 by subsequent designation (Spilman 1973: 42).
Current status: junior objective synonym of Mylaris Pallas, 1781 in Tenebrionidae (fideSpilman 1973: 42).
Mycetoma Dejean, 1834: 201 (as “Mycetoma. Ziegler.”)
Originally included available species: Dryops suturalis Panzer, 1797.
Type species: Dryops suturalis Panzer, 1797 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Tetratomidae (fideNikitsky 2008: 64).

Originally included available species: Tagenia indica Wiedemann, 1823.
Type species: Tagenia indica Wiedemann, 1823 by monotypy.
Current status: junior subjective synonym of Luprops Hope, 1833 in Tenebrionidae (fideLöbl et al. 2008b: 119).
Oplomerus Dejean, 1834: 206
Originally included available species: none.
Pezodontus Dejean, 1834: 203
Comments. This name is treated as a replacement name for Odontopus Silbermann, 1833 [Tenebrionidae], a junior homonym of Odontopus Say, 1831 [Curculionidae] and Odontopus Laporte, 1832 [Hemiptera]. Therefore Pezodontus Dejean, 1834 is a new objective synonym of Odontopezus Alluaud, 1889, also a replacement name for Odontopus Silbermann, 1833. Odontopezus Alluaud, 1889 is currently the valid name (see Mal 1985) but Pezodontus Dejean, 1834 is older and has priority. Reversal of Precedence (ICZN 1999: Article 23.9) or an application to the Commission is necessary to conserve usage of the name Odontopezus Alluaud, 1889.
Phobelius Dejean, 1834: 203
Originally included available species: none.
Phymatodes Dejean, 1834: 203
Originally included available species: Lagria tuberculata Fabricius, 1792.
Type species: Lagria tuberculata Fabricius, 1792 by monotypy.
Current status: name suppressed in Tenebrionidae.
Comment. Phymatodes Dejean, 1834 was suppressed for the purposes of the Principles of Homonymy and Priority in Opinion 1525 (ICZN 1989a).
Plateia Dejean, 1834: 204 (as “Plateia. De Haan.”)
Originally included available species: none.
Zophobas
Dejean, 1834: 204
Originally included available species: Helops morio Fabricius, 1777; Tenebrio nigritus Olivier, 1795; Helops opacus Sahlberg, 1823; Tenebrio quadrimaculata Olivier, 1795.
Type species: Helops morio Fabricius, 1777 (= Tenebrio atratus Fabricius, 1775) by subsequent designation (Motschulsky 1872: 26).
Current status: valid genus in Tenebrionidae (fideAalbu et al. 2002a: 498, as “Zophobas Blanchard, 1845”).
Comments. We have followed the intrepation of Ferrer (2006: 235) regarding the concept of Helops morio Fabricius, 1777.
Hétéromères: Hélopiens
Adelphus Dejean, 1834: 208
Originally included available species: Helops beniniensis Palisot de Beauvois, 1811; Helops marginatus Fabricius, 1792.
Type species: Helops marginatus Fabricius, 1792 by present designation.
Current status: senior subjective synonym of Praeugena Laporte, 1840 in Tenebrionidae (fideGemminger and Harold 1870: 2039).
Comments. Adelphus Dejean, 1834 has precedence over Praeugena Laporte, 1840 which is currently used as valid (e.g., De Moor 1975: 42). Reversal of Precedence (ICZN 1999: Article 23.9) or an application to the Commission is necessary to conserve usage of the name Praeugena Laporte, 1840.
Agapetus Dejean, 1834: 212
Originally included available species: none.
Amacarus Dejean, 1834: 212
Originally included available species: none.

Type species: Helops obliquatus Fabricius, 1798 by monotypy.
Current status: senior synonym of Penthe Newman, 1838 in Tetratomidae (fideBouchard and Pollock 2009: 66).
Comments. Anorops Dejean, 1834is a nomen oblitum and Penthe Newman, 1838 a nomen protectum following Bouchard and Pollock (2009: 66).
Atractus Dejean, 1834: 212 (as “Atractus. Mac Leay.”)
Originally included available species: none.
Cymatothes Dejean, 1834: 208
Originally included available species: Helops undatusFabricius 1792.
Type species: Helops undatusFabricius 1792 (= Erotylus nebulosus Fabricius, 1781) by monotypy.

Type species: Helops longipes Fabricius, 1781 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Tenebrionidae (fide Robiche, 2006: 382, as “Eupezus Blanchard, 1845”).
Homocyrtus Dejean, 1834: 211
Comments. This name is interpreted here as a replacement name for Cyphonotus Guérin-Méneville, 1831 [Tenebrionidae], a junior homonym of Cyphonotus Fischer von Waldheim, 1823 [Scarabaeidae].
Hybonotus Dejean, 1834: 211
Originally included available species: Tetraphyllus formosus Laporte and Brullé, 1831.
Type species: Tetraphyllus formosus Laporte and Brullé, 1831 by monotypy.
Current status: junior subjective synonym of Tetraphyllus Laporte and Brullé, 1831 in Tenebrionidae (fideLöbl et al. 2008b: 348).
Nephodes Dejean, 1834: 210
Originally included available species: none.
Omophlus Dejean, 1834: 213 (as “Omophlus. Megerle.”)
Originally included available species: Cistela arcuata Gebler, 1829; Cistela armillata Brullé, 1832 (as “Armillatus. Parreyss.”); Cistela coeruleus Fabricius, 1787; Cistela lepturoides Fabricius, 1787; Cistela nigripennis Fabricius, 1792; Cistela picipes Fabricius, 1792; Cistela pilicollis Faldermann, 1832; Cistela ruficollis Fabricius, 1781.
Type species: Cistela lepturoides Fabricius, 1787 by subsequent designation (Solier 1835: 246).
Current status: valid genus in Tenebrionidae (fideLöbl et al. 2008b: 334).
Oplocheirus Dejean, 1834: 211
Originally included available species: none.
Penichrus Dejean, 1834: 210
Originally included available species: none.
Phlaegmatus Dejean, 1834: 208
Originally included available species: none.
Physocoelus Dejean, 1834: 211
Originally included available species: none.
Poecilesthus Dejean, 1834: 207 (as “Paecilesthus. Dejean.”)
Originally included available species: Erotylus fasciatus Fabricius, 1781; Helops geniculatus Germar, 1824; Helops geometricus Perty, 1832; Helops suturalis Germar, 1824.
Type species: Erotylus fasciatus Fabricius, 1781 by subsequent designation (Hope 1840: 133).
Current status: valid genus in Tenebrionidae (fideAalbu et al. 2002b: 512).
Comments: Poecilesthus, an incorrect subsequent spelling first used by Dejean (1836b: 229), is in prevailing usage and so deemed to be the correct original spelling (ICZN 1999: Article 33.3.1).
Saerangodes Dejean, 1834: 208
Originally included available species: none.
Sphenosoma Dejean, 1834: 212
Comments. This name is treated as an unnecessary replacement name for Acropteron Perty, 1832 [Tenebrionidae].
Talanus Dejean, 1834: 211
Originally included available species: none.
Thecacerus
Dejean, 1834: 207

Acosmus Dejean, 1834: 218
Originally included available species: none.
Eutrapela
Dejean, 1834: 215
Originally included available species: Crioceris elongata Fabricius, 1781; Helodes porrecta Fabricius, 1801.
Type species: Crioceris elongata Fabricius, 1781 (= Chrysomela unifasciata DeGeer, 1778) by subsequent designation (Duponchel 1845: 533).
Current status: junior homonym of Eutrapela Hübner, 1809 [Lepidoptera]; valid genus in Tenebrionidae (fideBorchmann 1936: 202, as “Eutrapela Blanch[ard]”).
Comments: Borchmann (1910: 14) reported that the use of this genus name in Lepidoptera predated the use in Tenebrionidae but expressed doubts about the availability of Hübner’s Eutrapela and therefore did not propose a replacement name. The geometrid name Eutrapela Hübner, 1809 is treated as valid in recent catalogues (e.g., Parsons et al. 1999: 385). To replace Eutrapela Dejean, 1834, we propose the name Neoeutrapela, nomen novum.
Isotoma Dejean, 1834: 214
Originally included available species: none.
Metoecus Dejean, 1834: 218
Originally included available species: Mordella paradoxa Linnaeus, 1760 (as “Paradoxus. Fabr.”).
Type species: Mordella paradoxa Linnaeus, 1760 by monotypy.

Causima Dejean, 1834: 226
Originally included available species: Lytta vidua Klug, 1825.
Type species: Lytta vidua Klug, 1825 by monotypy.
Current status: invalid subjective synonym of Epicauta Dejean, 1834 in Meloidae (fideBologna 2008: 372).
Dacnodes Dejean, 1834: 226
Originally included available species: none.
Eletica Dejean, 1834: 224
Originally included available species: Lytta rufa Fabricius, 1801.
Type species: Lytta rufa Fabricius, 1801 (= Lytta bipustulata Fabricius, 1801) by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Meloidae (fideBologna 2008: 370).
Epicauta Dejean, 1834: 224
Originally included available species: Lytta atomaria Germar, 1821; Lytta atrata Fabricius, 1775; Lytta bimaculata Klug, 1825; Lytta cinerea Fabricius, 1798; Lytta concinna Klug, 1829 (as “Concinna. Dej.”); Meloe erythrocephalus Pallas, 1771 (as “Erythrocephala. Fabr.”); Lytta geniculata Klug, 1829; Lytta gigas Fabricius, 1792; Lytta lemniscata Fabricius, 1801; Lytta lugubris Klug, 1829; Lytta megalocephala Gebler, 1817; Lytta melanocephala Fabricius, 1801; Cantharis melophtalmos Olivier, 1795; Lytta ochropus Klug, 1829 (as “Ochropus. Dej.”); Lytta oculata Fabricius, 1792; Lytta punctata Germar, 1824; Lytta ruficeps Illiger, 1800; Lytta ruficollis Fabricius, 1792; Meloe sibirica Pallas, 1773; Lytta strigosa Gyllenhal, 1817 (as “Strigosa. Schönherr.”); Lytta testacea Fabricius, 1792; Lytta villosa Fabricius, 1798; Lytta vittata Fabricius, 1775.
Type species: Meloe erythrocephalus Pallas, 1771 by subsequent designation (Werner 1945: 425).
Current status: valid genus in Meloidae (fideBologna 2008: 372).
Comments. The first type species designation for Epicauta Dejean is that of Duponchel (1844: 356) who selected Lytta gigas Fabricius, 1792 (= Cantharis gigas Olivier, 1790), one of the species originally included in the genus. This species is currently included in the genus Cyaneolytta Péringuey, 1909 (e.g., Selander 1986: 103) and its acceptance would bring significant nomenclatural changes. We believe that a request to the Commission to reject Duponchel’s designation is the best avenue.
Pyrota Dejean, 1834: 224
Originally included available species: Lytta afzeliana Fabricius, 1801; Lytta dispar Germar, 1824; Lytta herculeana Germar, 1824; Cantharis sinuata Olivier, 1795.
Type species: Lytta dispar Germar, 1824 by subsequent designation (Aksentjev 1988: 578).
Current status: valid genus in Meloidae (fidePinto and Bologna 2002: 526).

Current status: junior subjective synonym of Ischnomera Stephens, 1832 in Oedemeridae (fideŠvihla 2008: 357).
Ichnodes Dejean, 1834: 227
Originally included available species: none.
Microps Dejean, 1834: 228 (as “Microps. Megerle.”)
Comments. This name was listed by Dejean as an invalid synonym of Ditylus Fischer von Waldheim, 1817. It has not been treated before 1961 as an available name and adopted as the name of a taxon or treated as a senior homonym. Therefore Microps Dejean, 1834 is unavailable. Microps was first used as a valid name by Dahl (1823: 46) but his work was suppressed in Opinion 710 (ICZN 1964) for nomenclatural purposes.
Nacerdes Dejean, 1834: 228 (as Nacerdes. Stéven.)
Originally included available species: Cantharis lepturoides Thunberg, 1784 (as “Lepturoides. Gyllenhal.”); Lagria livida Fabricius, 1775; Necydalis notata Fabricius, 1792; Oedemera pallipes Olivier, 1811; Oedemera suturalis Olivier, 1811; Lagria vittata Fabricius, 1775.
Type species: Necydalis notata Fabricius, 1792 (= Cantharis melanura Linnaeus, 1758) by subsequent designation (Arnett 1950: 222).

Originally included available species: none.
ApotomoderesDejean, 1834: 253 (as “Apotomoderes. Mannerheim.”)
Comments. This genus is treated as a replacement name for Apotomus Schönherr, 1834 [Curculionidae], a junior homonym of Apotomus Illiger, 1807 [Carabidae].

Originally included available species: none.
Brachypterus
Dejean, 1835: 289
Originally included available species: none.
Brachysoma Dejean, 1834: 246
Comments. This name was listed by Dejean as an invalid synonym of Gonipterus Schönherr, 1833. To our knowledge, it has not been treated before 1961 as an available name and adopted as the name of a taxon or treated as a senior homonym and therefore Brachysoma Dejean, 1834 is unavailable. Brachysoma was first used by Dejean (1821: 96) but not made available.
Byrsopages Dejean, 1835: 261 (as “Byrsopages. Faldermann.”)
Originally included available species: none.
CamarhinusDejean, 1835: 280

Comasinus Dejean, 1835: 283 (as “Comasinus. Meg. Dej. Catal.”)
Comments. This name was listed by Dejean as an invalid synonym of Styphlus Schönherr, 1826. It has not been treated before 1961 as an available name and adopted as the name of a taxon or treated as a senior homonym and therefore Comasinus Dejean, 1835 is unavailable. Comasinus was first used by Dejean (1821: 85) but not made available (see Alonso-Zarazaga and Lyal 1999: 84), notwithstanding Silfverberg’s (1984b: 61) comment.

Cyclopus Dejean, 1834: 247
Comments. This name was listed by Dejean as an invalid synonym of Syzygops Schönherr, 1826. To our knowledge, it has not been treated before 1961 as an available name and adopted as the name of a taxon or treated as a senior homonym and therefore Cyclopus Dejean, 1834 is unavailable. Cyclopus was first used by Dejean (1821: 96) but not made available.

Originally included available species: none.
Eusomatus Dejean, 1834: 249
Comments. This name was listed by Dejean as an invalid synonym of Eusomus Germar, 1824. It has not been treated before 1961 as an available name and adopted as the name of a taxon or treated as a senior homonym and therefore Eusomatus Dejean, 1834 is unavailable. This name is treated as different from EusomatusKrynicki, 1834 (see Alonso-Zarazaga and Lyal 1999: 177). The name was first used by Dejean (1821: 94) but not made available.

Current status: valid genus in Trogossitidae (fideLeschen and Lackner 2013).
Comments. The genus Lepidopteryx Hope, 1840 [type species: Trogosita squamosa Gray, 1832 by monotypy], incorrectly treated as the valid synonym of LeperinaErichson, 1844 recently (e.g., Kolibáč 2009: 127), is a junior objective synonym of Gymnocheilis Dejean, 1835. Gymnochila Erichson, 1844 [type species: Trogosita vestita Griffith, 1832 (= Trogosita varia Fabricius, 1801) by monotypy] is also a junior synonym of Gymnocheilis Dejean, 1835.

Anoplosthaeta Dejean, 1835 was qualified as nomen oblitum by Sama (2009: 24) but the Reversal of Precedence (ICZN 1999, Article 23.9) cannot be used to suppress Anoplosthaeta in favour of Prosopocera since Anoplosthaeta was used as valid after 1899 (e.g., Aurivillius 1907: 21, as Anoplostetha). An application to the Commission is necessary to preserve Prosopocera, the type genus of the valid tribe Prosopocerini Thomson, 1864.
Aphanasium Dejean, 1835: 322
Originally included available species: Callidium australe Boisduval, 1835 (as “Australe. Dej.”).
Type species: Callidium australe Boisduval, 1835 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Cerambycidae (fideMcKeown 1947: 51, as “Aphanasium Thomson, 1860”).
Comments. Boisduval’s species was described earlier than the fourth livraison of Dejean’s catalogue (see “Precedence” section [5]).
Aphies Dejean, 1835: 353
Originally included available species: none.
Aplectrus Dejean, 1835: 330
Originally included available species: none.
Asemnis Dejean, 1835: 350
Originally included available species: none.
Astynomus Dejean, 1835: 337
Comments. This name is treated as anunnecessary replacement name for Aedilis Audinet-Serville, 1835 [Cerambycidae]. Audinet-Serville’s publication (1835a), where the name Aedilis was made available, appeared before the fourth livraison of Dejean’s catalogue (see “Precedence” section [7]).
Atelodesmis Dejean, 1835: 348
Originally included available species: none.
Axinopalpis Dejean, 1835: 332
Originally included available species: Obrium gracile Krynicki, 1832 (as “Gracilis. Ziegler.”).
Type species: Obrium gracile Krynicki, 1832 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Cerambycidae (fideAdlbauer et al. 2010: 184).
Batocera Dejean, 1835: 341
Originally included available species: Lamia octomaculata Fabricius, 1792; Cerambyx rubus Linnaeus, 1758 (as “Rubus. Fabr.”).
Type species: Cerambyx rubus Linnaeus, 1758 by subsequent designation (Blanchard 1845: 175).

Originally included available species: none.
Cephalophis Dejean, 1835: 318 (as “Cephalophis. Dupont.”)
Originally included available species: none.
Ceropogon Dejean, 1835: 328
Originally included available species: Cerasphorus hirticornis Audinet-Serville, 1834.
Type species: Cerasphorus hirticornis Audinet-Serville, 1834 by monotypy.
Current status: junior synonym of Cerasphorus Audinet-Serville, 1834 in Cerambycidae (fideGemminger and Harold 1872: 2811).
Cerosterna Dejean, 1835: 341
Originally included available species: Lamia gladiator Fabricius, 1801; Lamia punctator Fabricius, 1777; Lamia reticulator Fabricius, 1781; Lamia scabrator Fabricius, 1781 (as “Scabrator. Olivier.”).
Type species: Lamia gladiator Fabricius, 1801 (= Lamia scabrator Fabricius, 1781) by subsequent designation (Thomson 1864: 75).
Current status: valid genus in Cerambycidae (fideAdlbauer et al. 2010: 279).

Originally included available species: Lamia hystrix Fabricius, 1781.
Type species: Lamia hystrix Fabricius, 1781 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Cerambycidae (fideBreuning 1950: 416, as “Cloniocerus Cast[elnau], 1840”).
Closteromerus Dejean, 1835: 324
Originally included available species: Saperda sexpunctata Fabricius, 1792.
Type species: Saperda sexpunctata Fabricius, 1792 by monotypy.
Current status: senior objective synonym of Hylomela Gahan, 1904 in Cerambycidae (fideVeiga Ferreira 1966: 721, as “Closteromerus Lacordaire, 1869”).
Comments. Closteromerus Dejean, 1835 has precedence over Hylomela Gahan, 1904 which is currently used as valid (e.g., Veiga Ferreira 1966: 721). If the name Hylomela Gahan is to be conserved as valid, an application to the Commission is necessary.
The name Closteromerus has often been credited to Thomson (1861: 169) in a different taxonomic sense than that of Dejean (e.g., Veiga Ferreira 1966: 678). The name Homaloceraea Schmidt, 1922 is available for Closteromerus sensuThomson (1861: 169).
Closteropus Dejean, 1835: 324

Originally included available species: Cerambyx rusticus Linnaeus, 1758 (as “Rusticum. Fabr.”).
Type species: Cerambyx rusticus Linnaeus, 1758 by monotypy.
Current status: junior objective synonym of Arhopalus Audinet-Serville, 1834 in Cerambycidae (fideAdlbauer et al. 2010: 137).
Criomorphus Dejean, 1835: 337
Originally included available species: none.
Cyclopeplus Dejean, 1835: 335
Originally included available species: none.
Cyrtognathus Dejean, 1835: 316
Originally included available species: Prionus paradoxus Faldermann, 1833.
Type species: Prionus paradoxus Faldermann, 1833.
Current status: valid genus in Cerambycidae (fideDrumont and Komiya 2010: 91, as “Cyrtognathus Faldermann, 1835”).
Comments. This name was proposed the same year by both Dejean (1835: 316) and Faldermann (1835: 431). As indicated in the “Precedence” section [10], Dejean’s name has priority.
Delocheilus Dejean, 1835: 319
Originally included available species: none.
Deltosoma Dejean, 1835: 321
Originally included available species: none.
Deroplia Dejean, 1835: 348
Originally included available species: Saperda genei Aragona, 1830 (as “Genei. Chevrolat.”).
Type species: Saperda genei Aragona, 1830 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Cerambycidae (fideAdlbauer et al. 2010: 222).
Diastocera Dejean, 1835: 342
Originally included available species: Lamia trifasciata Fabricius, 1775.
Type species: Lamia trifasciata Fabricius, 1775 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Cerambycidae (fideDanilevsky 2011: 321).
Comments. Diastocera Dejean was placed on the Official List of Generic Names in Zoology in Opinion 1407 (ICZN 1986).
Dicranoderes Dejean, 1835: 320 (as “Dicranoderes. Dupont.”)
Originally included available species: none.
Dicranops Dejean, 1835: 322
Originally included available species: none.
Dorcacephalum Dejean, 1835: 345 (as “Dorcacephalum. Dupont.”)
Originally included available species: none.
Dorcaschema Dejean, 1835: 348
Originally included available species: none.
Entelopes Dejean, 1835: 347
Originally included available species: none.
Erioderus Dejean, 1835: 318
Originally included available species: none.

Eudoxilus Dejean, 1835: 323 (as “Eudoxilus. Dupont.”)
Originally included available species: none.
Eumathes Dejean, 1835: 348
Originally included available species: none.
Eurycephalus Dejean, 1835: 323
Originally included available species: Cerambyx lundii Fabricius, 1792; Cerambyx maxillosus Olivier, 1795; Cerambyx nigripes Olivier, 1795.
Type species: Cerambyx maxillosus Olivier, 1795 (= Cerambyx lundii Fabricius, 1792) by monotypy.
Current status: junior homonym of Eurycephalus Gray, 1832 [Cerambycidae]; senior synonym of Euryphagus Thomson, 1864 in Cerambycidae (fideAdlbauer et al. 2010: 197).
Comments. The names lundii and nigripes are listed in synonymy with maxillosus in Dejean’s catalogue; therefore the type species of Eurycephalus is maxillosus by monotypy (ICZN 1999: Article 68.3).
Eurypygon Dejean, 1835: 329
Originally included available species: none.
Euryscelis Dejean, 1835: 331
Originally included available species: Callidium suturale Olivier, 1795.
Type species: Callidium suturale Olivier, 1795 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Cerambycidae (fideMonné and Bezark 2009: 44).
Eusebis Dejean, 1835: 349
Originally included available species: none.
Euteles Dejean, 1835: 348
Originally included available species: none.
Eutheia Dejean, 1835: 353 (as “Eutheia. Reichenbach.”)
Originally included available species: Hippopsis filum Klug, 1829.
Type species: Hippopsis filum Klug, 1829 by monotypy.
Current status: junior homonym of Eutheia Stephens, 1830 [Staphylinidae]; senior subjective synonym of Spalacopsis Newman, 1842 in Cerambycidae (fideMonné and Bezark 2009: 239).
Eutrypanus Dejean, 1835: 337
Originally included available species: none.
Evethis Dejean, 1835: 349
Originally included available species: none.
Exocentrus Dejean, 1835: 339 (as “Exocentrus. Megerle.”)
Originally included available species: Cerambyx balteus Linnaeus sensu Dejean, 1835 (as “Balteatus. Fabr.”); Cerambyx crinitus Panzer, 1795; Cerambyx lusitanus Linnaeus, 1767 (as “Lusitanicus. Olivier.”).
Type species: Cerambyx balteus Linnaeus sensu Dejean, 1835 (= Cerambyx lusitanus Linnaeus, 1767) by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Cerambycidae (fideAdlbauer et al. 2010: 309).
Comments. Except for Cerambyx balteatus DeGeer, 1775, a junior synonym of Knulliana cincta (Drury, 1773) described from Virginia, USA (Linsley 1962: 110), no other new species-group taxon was described under the name Cerambyx balteatus or Lamia balteata despite that such names are recorded in several works on the European fauna and attributed to Fabricius or Gyllenhal. The first use of Cerambyx balteatus in Europe appeared in Fabricius (1792: 262) who referred the species to Linnaeus and Olivier. Both of these authors actually described Cerambyx balteus Linnaeus, 1767. Therefore it is quite evident that Fabricius used an incorrect subsequent spelling for the name balteus Linnaeus. Audinet-Serville (1835: 59), who had most likely access to Dejean’s collection, reported that the balteatus in Dejean’s catalogue was a species of Pogonocherus. This species is actually Exocentrus lusitanus (Linnaeus, 1767) in the tribe Pogonocherini Mulsant, 1839 (Adlbauer et al. 2010: 310) while Cerambyx balteus Linnaeus, 1767 is a valid species in the genus Parmena Dejean of the tribe Parmenini Mulsant, 1839 (Adlbauer et al. 2010: 290).
The names crinitus and lusitanicus are listed in synonymy with balteatus in Dejean’s catalogue; therefore the type species of Exocentrus is balteus sensu Dejean by monotypy (ICZN 1999: Article 68.3).
Gnaphalocera Dejean, 1835: 349
Originally included available species: none.
Grammoptera Dejean, 1835: 356 (as “Grammoptera. Serville. ”)
Originally included available species: Leptura holosericea Fabricius, 1801 [no 68]; Leptura laevis Fabricius, 1792; Leptura lurida Fabricius, 1792; Leptura praeusta Fabricius, 1787; Leptura quadriguttata Fabricius, 1787; Leptura ruficornis Fabricius, 1781.
Type species: Leptura praeusta Fabricius, 1787 (= Leptura ustulata Schaller, 1783) by subsequent designation (Westwood 1838: 41).
Current status: valid genus in Cerambycidae (fideAdlbauer et al. 2010: 101, as “Grammoptera Audinet-Serville, 1835”).
Comments. The name Grammoptera was proposed the same year by Dejean (1835: 356) and Audinet-Serville (1835: 215). As indicated in the “Precedence” section [8], Dejean’s publication has priority.
Hammoderus Dejean, 1835: 341
Originally included available species: none.
Hastatis Dejean, 1835: 352
Originally included available species: none.
Hathlia Dejean, 1835: 347
Originally included available species: none.
Hebecerus Dejean, 1835: 336
Originally included available species: Acanthocinus australis Boisduval, 1835 (as “Australis. Dej.”); Acanthocinus marginicollis Boisduval, 1835 (as “Marginicollis. Dej.”).
Type species: Acanthocinus marginicollis Boisduval, 1835 by present designation.
Current status: senior subjective synonym of Ancita Thomson, 1864 in Cerambycidae (fideMcKeown 1947: 127, as “Hebecerus Thomson”).
Comments. Hebecerus Dejean, 1835 has precedence over Ancita Thomson, 1864 and should be used as valid. Reversal of Precedence (ICZN 1999, Article 23.9) or an application to the Commission is necessary to conserve usage of the name Ancita Thomson, 1864.
Boisduval’s publication was issued by 27 March 1835 (Evenhuis 1997: 104), so the two names listed in Dejean (1835: 336), which were credited to Dejean in Boisduval’s work, were made available prior to Dejean’s publication.
Hebestola Dejean, 1835: 348
Originally included available species: none.
Hesperophanes Dejean, 1835: 328
Originally included available species: Callidium bimaculatum Fabricius, 1781; Callidium holosericeum Rossi, 1790; Callidium mixtum Fabricius, 1798; Callidium nebulosum Olivier, 1790.
Type species: none validy designated.
Current status: valid genus in Cerambycidae (fideAdlbauer et al. 2010: 185).
Comments. Callidium sericeum Fabricius, 1787 is usually cited as type species of Hesperophanes Dejean (e.g., Thomson 1864: 253; Sama 2002: 49; Adlbauer et al. 2010: 185). However this taxon is a species inquirendum in Dejean’s catalogue and cannot be considered as an originally included species (ICZN 1999: Article 67.2.5). All available species originally included actually belong to genera other than Hesperophanes. An application to the Commission is necessary to retain Callidium sericeum Fabricius as type species of Hesperophanes Dejean.
Hesycha Dejean, 1835: 344
Originally included available species: none.
Heterogaster Dejean, 1835: 332
Originally included available species: Callidium pilicorne Fabricius sensu Olivier, 1795 (as “Pilicorne. Olivier.”).
Type species: Callidium pilicorne Fabricius sensu Olivier, 1795 (= Heterogaster pilicornis Dejean, 1835) by monotypy.
Current status: junior homonym of Heterogaster Schilling, 1829 [Hemiptera]; senior synonym of Anisogaster Deyrolle, 1862 in Cerambycidae (fideGemminger and Harold 1872: 2836).
Comments. Dejean obviously retained the name Callidium pilicorne in the sense of a misidentification used by Olivier (1795 [70]: 68) since the true Callidium pilicorne Fabricius is included by Dejean (1835: 332) in his previous genus, Onchomerus Dejean. According to ICZN (1999: Article 11.10), an author, who employs a specific name for the type species of a new nominal genus-group taxon deliberately in the sense of a previous misidentification of it, is deemed to have denoted a new nominal species, with its own author and date as though it were newly proposed in combination with the new genus-group name. Therefore Dejean (1835: 332) indirectly proposed the name Heterogaster pilicornis, which is a senior synonym of Anisogaster flavicans Deyrolle, 1862 (new synonymy).
Hetoemis Dejean, 1835: 348
Originally included available species: none.
Imantocera Dejean, 1835: 345
Originally included available species: Lamia plumosa Olivier, 1792.
Type species: Lamia plumosa Olivier, 1792 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Cerambycidae (fideBreuning 1962: 395, as “Imantocera Thoms[on] 1864”).
Isarthron Dejean, 1835: 329
Originally included available species: Callidium aulicum Fabricius, 1775; Cerambyx castaneus Linnaeus, 1758 (as “Castaneum. Paykull.”); Callidium femorale Ménétriés, 1832; Callidium fulcratum Fabricius, 1792; Callidium fuscum Fabricius, 1787; Cerambyx luridus Linnaeus, 1767 (as “Luridum. Fabr.”).
Type species: Callidium aulicum Fabricius, 1775 (= Cerambyx castaneus Linnaeus, 1758) by subsequent designation (Linsley 1962: 85).
Current status: name suppressed in Cerambycidae.
Comments. The name Isarthron was suppressed for the purposes of the Principle of Priority in Opinion 1473 (ICZN 1988).
Lagocheirus Dejean, 1835: 336
Originally included available species: Cerambyx araneiformis Linnaeus, 1767 (as “Areneiformis. Fabr.”).
Type species: Cerambyx araneiformis Linnaeus, 1767 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Cerambycidae (fideMonné and Bezark 2009: 199).
Lasiodactylus Dejean, 1835: 335
Originally included available species: none.
Leprodera Dejean, 1835: 342
Originally included available species: none.
Leprosoma Dejean, 1835: 345
Originally included available species: none.
Leptocnemus Dejean, 1835: 323
Originally included available species: none.
Leptoplia Dejean, 1835: 339
Comments. This name is treated as an unnecessary replacement name for Microplia Audinet-Serville, 1835 [Cerambycidae]. Audinet-Serville’s Microplia (1835: 21) was made available prior to Dejean’s publication (see “Precedence” section [7]).
Leptoscelis Dejean, 1835: 338
Comments. This name is treated as a replacement name for Anisopus Audinet-Serville, 1835 [Cerambycidae], a junior homonym of Anisopus Meigen, 1803 [Diptera]. Audinet-Serville’s Anisopus (1835: 30) was made available prior to Dejean’s publication (see “Precedence” section [7]). Leptoscelis Dejean, 1835 is a junior homonym of Leptoscelis Laporte, 1832 [Hemiptera] and a senior synonym of Anisopodus White, 1855.
Lypsymena Dejean, 1835: 348
Originally included available species: none.
Macronemus Dejean, 1835: 337
Originally included available species: Lamia antennator Fabricius, 1801.
Type species: Lamia antennator Fabricius, 1801 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Cerambycidae (fideMonné and Bezark 2009: 224).
Maschalodonta Dejean, 1835: 349
Originally included available species: none.
Mastigocera Dejean, 1835: 345
Originally included available species: Lamia barbicornis Fabricius, 1798.
Type species: Lamia barbicornis Fabricius, 1798 by monotypy.
Current status: senior objective synonym of Mallonia Thomson, 1857 in Cerambycidae (fideGemminger and Harold 1873: 3057).
Comments. This name has precedence over Mallonia Thomson, 1857. Reversal of Precedence (ICZN 1999: Article 23.9) or an application to the Commission is necessary to conserve usage of the name Mallonia Thomson.
Mastigocera Dejean, 1835 is not a junior homonym of Mastigocera Berthold, 1827 [Hymenoptera] since Berthold’s name is unavailable (Taeger and Blank 1996: 255).
Milothris Dejean, 1835: 347
Originally included available species: Saperda irrorata Fabricius, 1801; Lamia lynx Dalman, 1817; Saperda marmorea Schönherr, 1817.
Type species: Saperda marmorea Schönherr, 1817 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Cerambycidae (fideBreuning 1961: 235, as “Milothris Cast[elnau] 1840”).
Comments. The names irrorata and lynx are listed in synonymy with marmorea in Dejean’s catalogue; therefore the type species of Milothris is marmorea by monotypy (ICZN 1999: Article 68.3).
Monohammus Dejean, 1835: 340 (as “Monohammus. Megerle.”)
Comments. This name is treated as an unjustified emendationof Monochamus Dejean, 1821. The name Monohammus was first proposed by Dahl (1823: 67) but his work was suppressed in Opinion 710 by the Commission (ICZN 1964) for nomenclatorial purposes.
Myoxinus Dejean, 1835: 336
Originally included available species: none.
Myzomorphus Dejean, 1835: 319
Originally included available species: none.
Nosophloeus Dejean, 1835: 320 (as “Nosophloeus. Dupont.”)
Comments. This name is treated as an unnecessary replacement name for Cryptobias Audinet-Serville, 1834 [Cerambycidae].
Nyphona Dejean, 1835: 344 (as “Nyphona. Ziegler.”)
Originally included available species: Lamia obscurator Fabricius, 1801.
Type species: Lamia obscurator Fabricius, 1801 by monotypy.
Current status: senior subjective synonym of Hecyra Thomson, 1857 in Cerambycidae (fideMarinoni 1977: 47).
Comments. Nyphona Dejean, 1835is a nomen oblitum and Hecyra Thomson, 1857 a nomen protectum following Sudre and Téocchi (2002).
Oberea Dejean, 1835: 350 (as “Oberea. Megerle.”)
Originally included available species: Saperda atricornis Fabricius, 1792; Saperda depressa Gebler, 1824; Cerambyx erythrocephalus Schrank, 1776 (as “Erythrocephala.

Fabr.”); Saperda pupillata Gyllenhal, 1817 (as “Pupillata. Schönherr. ”); Saperda ruficollis Fabricius, 1792; Saperda tripunctata Fabricius, 1792.
Type species: Cerambyx linearis Linnaeus, 1761 by subsequent designation (Thomson 1859: 153).
Current status: valid genus in Cerambycidae (fideAdlbauer et al. 2010: 296).
Oedecnema Dejean, 1835: 355
Originally included available species: Leptura dubia Fabricius, 1781.
Type species: Leptura dubia Fabricius, 1781 (= Oedecnema gebleri Ganglbauer, 1889) by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Cerambycidae (fideAdlbauer et al. 2010: 107).

Phryneta Dejean, 1835: 341
Originally included available species: Lamia marmorea Olivier, 1792; Lamia spinator Fabricius, 1792.
Type species: Lamia marmorea Olivier, 1792 by subsequent designation (Thomson 1864: 71).
Current status: valid genus in Cerambycidae (fideAdlbauer et al. 2010: 291).
Phymasterna Dejean, 1835: 342
Originally included available species: Lamia pictor Klug, 1829; Lamia sparsa Klug, 1833.
Type species: none found.
Current status: unknown in Cerambycidae.
Comments. The name Phymasterna is usually credited to Laporte (1840: 473) (e.g., Aurivillius 1922: 176; Breuning 1959: 74) with Phymasterna lacteoguttata Laporte, 1840 as its type species by monotypy. Lamia pictor Klug, 1829 is currently included in the genus Solymus Lacordaire, 1872 (e.g., Breuning 1959: 78) and the second species, Lamia sparsa Klug, 1833, in the genus Frea Thomson, 1858 (e.g., Breuning 1962: 432). In order to preserve stability, we believe the best solution would be to apply to the Commission to suppress the name Phymasterna Dejean, 1835 for the Principles of Homonymy and Priority.
Phymatoderus Dejean, 1835: 340
Originally included available species: none.
Physobrachys Dejean, 1835: 340

Originally included available species: none.
Plectrura Dejean, 1835: 346
Originally included available species: none.
Plocaederus Dejean, 1835: 321
Originally included available species: Hamaticherus bellator Audinet-Serville, 1834 (as “Bellator. Dej.”); Cerambyx plicatus Olivier, 1790.
Type species: Hamaticherus bellator Audinet-Serville, 1834 by subsequent designation (Gianfranco 1991: 123).
Current status: valid genus in Cerambycidae (fideMonné 2012: 11).
Podius Dejean, 1835: 333 (as “Podius. Megerle.”)
Comments. This name was listed by Dejean as an invalid synonym of Deilus Audinet-Serville, 1834. The name has not been treated before 1961 as an available name and adopted as the name of a taxon or treated as a senior homonym and therefore Podius Dejean is not available.

Originally included available species: Lamia alternans Wiedemann, 1823; Lamia crassipes Wiedemann, 1823.
Type species: Lamia crassipes Wiedemann, 1823 by subsequent designation (Sama 2002: 95).
Current status: senior subjective synonym of Pterolophia Newman, 1842 in Cerambycidae (fideAdlbauer et al. 2010: 319).
Comments. Sama (2002: 95) listed Praonetha Dejean as nomen oblitum and Pterolophia Newman as nomen protectum although he did not provide the necessary references to justify his action (see ICZN 1999: Article 23.9.2).
Probatius Dejean, 1835: 337
Originally included available species: none.
Prosopocera Dejean, 1835: 343
Originally included available species: none.

Originally included available species: Cerambyx abbreviatus Fabricius, 1801; Leptura ceramboides Kirby, 1818.
Type species: Cerambyx abbreviatus Fabricius, 1801 (= Stenocorus suturalis Olivier, 1795) by present designation.
Current status: junior objective synonym of Stenoderus Dejean, 1821 in Cerambycidae (fideDejean 1835: 353, as “Pterostenus Mac Leay”).
Comment. Pterostenus was first proposed by Dejean as an invalid synonym of Stenoderus Dejean, 1821. It is available because it was treated before 1961 as an available name and adopted as the name of a taxon (e.g., Lacordaire 1868: 412).
McKeown (1947: 72) used Stenocentrus McKeown, 1845 as the valid name for the genus including Stenocorus suturalis Olivier, 1795. However, the valid name should be Stenoderus Dejean, 1821.
Pyrobolus Dejean, 1835: 352 (as “Pyrobolus.”)
Comments. This name was listed by Dejean as an invalid synonym of Amphionycha Dejean, 1835. The name has not been treated before 1961 as an available name and adopted as the name of a taxon or treated as a senior homonym and therefore Pyrobolus Dejean is not available.
Schoeniocera Dejean, 1835: 345
Originally included available species: none.

Type species: Saperda fricator Dalman, 1817 by subsequent designation (Desmarest 1860: 326).
Current status: junior homonym of Sphenura Lichtenstein, 1820 [Aves]; senior objective synonym of Nupserha Chevrolat, 1858 in Cerambycidae (Chevrolat 1858: 358).
Comments. Nupserha Chevrolat (1858: 358) was proposed as a replacement name for Sphenura Dejean.
Stellognatha Dejean, 1835: 342
Originally included available species: Cerambyx maculatus Olivier, 1795.
Type species: Cerambyx maculatus Olivier, 1795 by monotypy.

Originally included available species: none.
Stenosphenus Dejean, 1835: 330
Originally included available species: none.
Stenostola Dejean, 1835: 350
Originally included available species: Saperda dubia Laicharting, 1784 (as “Dubia. Megerle.”); Cerambyx ferreus Schrank, 1776 (as “Ferrea. Sturm.”); Saperda nigripes Fabricius, 1792.
Type species: Saperda nigripes Fabricius, 1792 (= Cerambyx ferreus Schrank, 1776) by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Cerambycidae (fideSama 2002: 112).
Comments. The names dubia and ferrea are listed in synonymy with nigripes in Dejean’s catalogue; therefore the type species of Stenostola is nigripes by monotypy (ICZN 1999: Article 68.3).
Stenura Dejean, 1835: 355
Originally included available species: Leptura atra Fabricius, 1775; Leptura aurulenta Fabricius, 1792; Leptura bifasciata Schrank, 1781; Leptura cruciata Olivier, 1795; Leptura distigma Charpentier, 1825 (as “Distigma.

Fabr.”); Leptura velutina Olivier, 1795; Leptura villica Fabricius, 1775; Leptura zebra Olivier, 1795; Leptura zebrata Fabricius, 1801.
Type species: Leptura emarginata Fabricius, 1787 by subsequent designation (Chemsak 1964: 235).
Current status: junior homonym of Stenura Cuvier, 1829 [Aves]; senior objective synonym of Stenelytrana Gistel, 1848 in Cerambycidae (fideMonné and Bezark 2009: 182).
Comments. Stenelytrana Gistel, 1848 was proposed as a replacement name for Stenura Dejean.

Originally included available species: Lamia cylindrator Fabricius, 1801; Lamia grisator Fabricius, 1787.
Type species: Lamia grisator Fabricius, 1787 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Cerambycidae (fideBreuning 1961: 233, as “Sthenias Cast[elnau] 1840”).
Comments. The name cylindrator is listed as a variety of grisator in Dejean’s catalogue; therefore the type species of Sthenias is grisator by monotypy (ICZN 1999: Article 68.3).
Strangalia Dejean, 1835: 355 (as “Strangalia. Serville.”)
Originally included available species: Leptura annularis Fabricius, 1801; Leptura arcuata Panzer, 1793; Leptura attenuata Linnaeus, 1758 (as “Attenuata. Fabr.”); Leptura bicolor Swederus, 1787; Leptura calcarata Fabricius, 1792; Leptura luteicornis Fabricius, 1775; Leptura subspinosa Fabricius, 1792.
Type species: Leptura luteicornis Fabricius, 1775 by subsequent designation (Thomson 1864: 141).
Current status: valid genus in Cerambycidae (fideAdlbauer et al. 2010: 116, as “Strangalia Audinet-Serville, 1835”).
Comments. The name Strangalia was proposed the same year by Dejean (1835: 355) and Audinet-Serville (1835: 220). As indicated in the “Precedence” section [8], Dejean’s name has priority.
Talaepora Dejean, 1835: 347
Originally included available species: none.
Tetraophthalmus Dejean, 1835: 347 (as “Tetraophthalmus. De Haan.”)
Originally included available species: Lamia daldorfii Illiger, 1800; Cerambyx splendidus Fabricius, 1792.
Type species: Cerambyx splendidus Fabricius, 1792 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Cerambycidae (fideAdlbauer et al. 2010: 237).
Comments. The name daldorfii is listed as a variety of splendidus in Dejean’s catalogue; therefore the type species of Tetraophthalmus is splendidus by monotypy (ICZN 1999: Article 68.3).
Trachystola Dejean, 1835: 343
Originally included available species: none.
Tragocephala Dejean, 1835: 342 (as “Tragocephala. Dupont.”)
Originally included available species: Lamia formosa Olivier, 1792; Lamia nobilis Fabricius, 1787; Cerambyx virescens Olivier, 1795.
Type species: Lamia formosa Olivier, 1792 by subsequent designation (Thomson 1864: 70).
Current status: valid genus in Cerambycidae (fideBreuning 1959: 81).
Tragomorphus Dejean, 1835: 335
Comments. This name is treated as an unnecessary replacement name for Anisocerus Lacordaire, 1830 [Cerambycidae].

Type species: Lamia oculator Fabricius, 1775 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Cerambycidae (fideBreuning 1959: 88, as “Zographus Cast[elnau] 1840”).
Zygocera Dejean, 1835: 344
Originally included available species: Acanthocinus pruinosus Boisduval, 1835 (as “Pruinosa. Mac Leay.”).
Type species: Acanthocinus pruinosus Boisduval, 1835 by monotypy.
Current status: senior objective synonym of Disternopsis Breuning, 1939 in Cerambycidae (new synonymy).
Comments. Zygocera is currently credited to Erichson (1842: 224) in a sense different than that of Dejean (1835) (e.g., Breuning 1970: 85) and Disternopsis Breuning, 1939 is the current valid generic name for the type species of Zygocera Dejean, 1835. In order to promote stability, we believe the best avenue would be to apply to the Commission to suppress Zygocera Dejean, 1835 for both the Principles of Homonymy and Priority.
Tétramères: Chrysomélines

Acromis Chevrolat, 1836: 370
Originally included available species: Cassida perforata Pallas, 1772 (as “Var. Perforata. Fabr.”); Cassida spinifex Linnaeus, 1763 (as “Spinifex. Fabr.”).
Type species: Cassida spinifex Linnaeus, 1763 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideBorowiec 1999: 83).
Comments. The name perforata is listed as a variety of spinifex in Dejean’s catalogue; therefore the type species of Acromis is spinifex by monotypy (ICZN 1999: Article 68.3).

Originally included available species: Clytra ephippium Germar, 1824; Cryptocephalus obsitus Fabricius, 1775.
Type species: Cryptocephalus obsitus Fabricius, 1775 by monotypy.
Current status: junior homonym of Anomoia Walker, 1835 [Diptera]; senior objective synonym of Anomoea Agassiz, 1846 in Chrysomelidae (fideRiley et al. 2003: 175).
Comments. The name ephippium is listed in synonymy with obsitus in Dejean’s catalogue; therefore the type species of Anomoia is obsitus by monotypy (ICZN 1999: Article 68.3).
Aphthona Chevrolat, 1836: 391
Originally included available species: Galeruca coerulea Paykull, 1799; Haltica cyparissiae Koch, 1803 (as “Cyparissiae. Ent. Hefte.”); Chrysomela euphorbiae Schrank (as “Euphorbiae. Fabr.”); Haltica lutescens Gyllenhal, 1813; Galeruca rubi Paykull, 1799 (as “Rubi. Fabr.”); Galeruca salicariae Paykull, 1800.

Originally included available species: Altica ciliata Olivier, 1808; Haltica hederae Illiger, 1807.
Type species: Altica ciliata Olivier, 1808 (= Chrysomela orbiculata Marsham, 1802) by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideDöberl 2010: 503).
Comments. The name hederae is listed in synonymy with ciliata in Dejean’s catalogue; therefore the type species of Apteropeda is ciliata by monotypy (ICZN 1999: Article 68.3).

Type species: Chrysomela quatuordecimguttata Fabricius, 1798 by subsequent designation (Chevrolat 1843: 656).
Current status: valid subgenus of Chrysolina Motschulsky, 1860 in Chrysomelidae (fideSeeno and Wilcox 1982: 81).
Comments. In Opinion 1279, the ICZN (1984) ruled that “Atechna Chevrolat, 1837” is not to be given priority over Chrysolina Motschulsky, 1860 when the two names are regarded as synonyms.
Atrachya Dejean, 1836a: 377
Originally included available species: Galleruca menetriesii Faldermann, 1835.

Originally included available species: Chrysomela pini Linnaeus, 1758 (as “Pini. Fabr.”).
Type species: Chrysomela pini Linnaeus, 1758 by monotypy.
Current status: valid subgenus of Cryptocephalus Geoffroy, 1762 in Chrysomelidae (fideLopatin et al. 2010: 604).
Ditropidus Chevrolat, 1836: 425
Originally included available species: none.
Dorylas Dejean, 1836a: 409
Originally included available species: none.
Dorynota Chevrolat, 1836: 370
Originally included available species: Cassida bidens Fabricius, 1781; Cassida pugionata Germar, 1824 (as “Pugionata. Hoffmansegg.”); Cassida truncata Fabricius, 1781.
Type species: Cassida bidens Fabricius, 1781 by subsequent designation (Duponchel and Chevrolat 1842b: 211).
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideBorowiec 1999: 161).
Echoma Chevrolat, 1836: 370
Originally included available species: Cassida basalis Germar, 1824; Cassida dichroa Germar, 1824; Cassida irrorata Fabricius, 1801; Cassida marginata Linnaeus, 1767 [no 23] (as “Marginata. Fabr.”); Cassida normalis Germar, 1824; Cassida suturalis Fabricius, 1777.
Type species: Cassida marginata Linnaeus, 1767 (= Cassida clypeata Panzer, 1798) by subsequent designation (Duponchel and Chevrolat 1842b: 211).
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideBorowiec 1999: 112).
Comments. Linnaeus (1758: 363) described a Cassida marginata from “America.” In 1767, Linnaeus described two Cassida marginata, one (no 14 on p. 576) from “America,” identical to his species of 1758, and one (no 23 on p. 578) from “India occidentali [= West Indies].” According to Borowiec (1999: 101, 113), Cassida marginata (no 14) is Chelymorpha marginata (Linnaeus, 1758) and the second Chelymorpha marginata (no 23) is a synonym of Echoma clypeata (Panzer, 1798). It is impossible to know which species Chevrolat (1836: 370) had in mind when he listed “marginata Fabr.” However, to promote stability we accept Chelymorpha marginata Linnaeus, 1767 as the species included in Dejean’s catalogue.
Ecthrophyta Dejean, 1836a: 379
Originally included available species: none.
Edusa Chevrolat, 1836: 408
Originally included available species: Colaspis varipes Boisduval, 1835 (as “Varipes. Latreille.”).
Type species: Colaspis varipes Boisduval, 1835 by monotypy.
Current status: senior synonym of Edusella Chapuis, 1874 in Chrysomelidae (fideSeeno and Wilcox 1982: 59).
Comments. Edusa Chevrolat, 1836 has precedence over Edusella Chapuis, 1874 which is currently used as valid (e.g., Seeno and Wilcox 1982: 59). Reversal of Precedence (ICZN 1999: Article 23.9) cannot be used because Edusa Chevrolat was used as valid after 1899 (e.g., Weise 1923: 53). Therefore an application to the Commission is necesssary to conserve usage of the name Edusella Chapuis.
Ellipticus Chevrolat, 1836: 426
Originally included available species: Erotylus immaculatus Olivier, 1807; Erotylus lineaticollis Duponchel, 1825 (as “Lineatocollis. Dej.”); Erotylus pallidus Olivier, 1791; Erotylus testaceus Fabricius, 1775.
Type species: Erotylus testaceus Fabricius, 1775 by subsequent designation (Alvarenga 1965: 83).
Current status: valid genus in Erotylidae (fideAlvarenga 1965: 83).
Comments. As mentioned by Alvarenga (1965: 83), Ellipticus Chevrolat, 1836 is a senior synonym of Omoiotelus Hope, 1841.
Elytrogona Chevrolat, 1836: 370
Originally included available species: Cassida ampulla Olivier, 1808; Cassida quatuordecimmaculata Latreille, 1802.
Type species: Cassida ampulla Olivier, 1808 (= Cassida quatuordecimmaculata Latreille, 1802) by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideBorowiec 1999: 114).
Comments. The name quatuordecimmaculata is listed in synonymy with ampulla in Dejean’s catalogue; therefore the type species Elytrogona is ampulla by monotypy (ICZN 1999: Article 68.3).
Elytrosphaera Chevrolat, 1836: 397
Originally included available species: none.
Endocephalus Chevrolat, 1836: 412
Originally included available species: Eumolpus bigatus Germar, 1824; Eumolpus maculatus Germar, 1824.

Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideSeeno and Wilcox 1982: 60).
Comments. The type species of Endocephalus listed by Bechyné (1953: 274), Eumolpus octopunctatus Germar, 1824, is a species inquirandum in Dejean’s catalogue and therefore not an originally included species (ICZN 1999: Article 67.2.5).

Janessa Chevrolat, 1836: 430
Originally included available species: Languria thoracica Olivier, 1807.
Type species: Languria thoracica Olivier, 1807 (= Trogosita bicolor Fabricius, 1798) by monotypy.
Current status: junior subjective synonym of Languria Latreille, 1802 in Erotylidae (fideLeschen and Skelley 2002: 345).
Labidognatha Dejean, 1836a: 419
Originally included available species: Cryptocephalus coerulans Fabricius, 1781.
Type species: Cryptocephalus coerulans Fabricius, 1781 by monotypy.
Current status: valid subgenus of Coptocephala Chevrolat, 1836 in Chrysomelidae (fideSeeno and Wilcox 1982: 33).
Labidomera Chevrolat, 1836: 397
Originally included available species: Chrysomela trimaculata Linnaeus sensu Fabricius, 1775 (as “Trimaculata. Fabr.”).
Type species: Chrysomela trimaculata Linnaeus sensu Fabricius, 1775 (= Labidomera trimaculata Chevrolat, 1836) by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideSeeno and Wilcox 1982: 79).
Comments. Chrysomela trimaculataFabricius (1775: 95) is usually listed as a valid species but is not an available species since Fabricius referred to Linnaeus (1767: 592) when describing the species (as “Linn. Syst. Nat. 11. 592. 45”). The true Chrysomela trimaculata Linnaeus is the coccinellid Hyperaspidius trimaculatus (Linnaeus, 1767). It is obvious that Chevrolat (1836: 397) used the name trimaculata in the sense of Fabricius (1775: 95). According to ICZN (1999: Article 11.10), an author, who employs a specific name for the type species of a new nominal genus-group taxon deliberately in the sense of a previous misidentification of it, is deemed to have denoted a new nominal species, with its own author and date as though it were newly proposed in combination with the new genus-group name. Therefore Chevrolat (1836: 397) indirectly proposed the name Labidomera trimaculata, which is a senior synonym of Chrysomela clivicollis Kirby, 1837 (new synonymy). An application to the Commission is necessary to conserve the name Chrysomela clivicollis Kirby, 1837 as a valid name.
Labidostomis Chevrolat, 1836: 418
Originally included available species: Clytra cyanicornis Germar, 1817 (as “Cyanicornis. Dahl.”); Cryptocephalus hordei Fabricius, 1787; Clytra humeralis Schneider, 1792 (as “Humeralis. Panzer.”); Chrysomela longimana Linnaeus, 1760 (as “Longimana. Fabr.”); Clythra notata Gebler, 1830; Clythra pallidipennis Gebler, 1830; Cryptocephalus taxicornis Fabricius, 1792; Chrysomela tridentata Linnaeus, 1758.
Type species: Chrysomela longimana Linnaeus, 1760 by subsequent designation (Thomson 1859: 158).
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideRegalin and Medvedev 2010: 570).
Comments. The type species designation of Cryptocephalus taxicornis Fabricius, 1792 by Jacoby (1908: 96), cited by Regalin and Medvedev (2010: 570), is invalid because of the prior valid typification by Thomson (1859: 158). Both species are currently included in the nominotypical subgenus of Labidostomis Chevrolat (fideRegalin and Medvedev 2010: 571–572).

Originally included available species: Chrysomela decempustulata Fabricius, 1792.
Type species: Chrysomela decempustulata Fabricius, 1792 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideSeeno and Wilcox 1982: 79).
Lisias Dejean, 1836a: 410
Originally included available species: none.
Lithonoma Chevrolat, 1836: 384
Originally included available species: Galleruca marginella Fabricius, 1801.
Type species: Galleruca marginella Fabricius, 1801 (= Chrysomela cincta Fabricius, 1781) by monotypy.
Current status: junior objective synonym of Oedionychis Latreille, 1829 in Chrysomelidae (fideDöberl 2010: 541).
Litosonycha Chevrolat, 1836: 387
Originally included available species: Haltica decipiens Klug, 1829 (as “Decipiens. Dej.”).
Type species: Haltica decipiens Klug, 1829 by monotypy.
Current status: senior synonym of Asphaera Duponchel and Chevrolat, 1842 (fideRiley et al. 2003: 125, as “Litosonycha H. Clark, 1865”).
Comments. This genus is attributed to Clark (1865: 377) in the literature (e.g., Seeno and Wilcox 1982: 140; Riley et al. 2003: 125). Litosonycha Chevrolat, 1836 has precedence over Asphaera Duponchel and Chevrolat, 1842. Reversal of Precedence (ICZN 1999: Article 23.9) or an application to the Commission is necessary to conserve usage of the name Asphaera Duponchel and Chevrolat, 1842.
Lybas Chevrolat, 1836: 429
Originally included available species: Erotylus lesueuri Chevrolat, 1835 (as “Lesueurii. Chevrolat.”); Erotylus melanophtalmus Duponchel, 1825 (as “Melanophthalmus. Dej.”); Erotylus sanguineus Duponchel, 1825 (as “Sanguineus. Dej.”).
Type species: Erotylus lesueuri Chevrolat, 1835 by subsequent designation (Alvarenga 1965: 85).
Current status: name suppressed in Erotylidae.
Comments. This name was suppressed for the purposes of the Principles of Priority and Homonymy in Opinion 1824 (ICZN 1996a).
Macrolenes Chevrolat, 1836: 419
Originally included available species: Clytra biguttata Olivier, 1791; Cryptocephalus bimaculatus Fabricius, 1781 (as “Bimaculata. Rossi.”); Clytra dentipes Olivier, 1808; Clytra macropus Illiger, 1800; Cryptocephalus maxillosus Fabricius, 1781; Clytra novempunctata Dufour, 1820; Cryptocephalus octopunctatus Fabricius, 1787; Clytra ruficollis Olivier, 1791; Cryptocephalus ruficollis Fabricius, 1792; Cryptocephalus sexmaculatus Fabricius, 1781; Clytra sexpunctata Olivier, 1808.
Type species: Cryptocephalus ruficollis Fabricius, 1792 (= Clytra dentipes Olivier, 1808) by subsequent designation (Monrós 1953: 45).
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideRegalin and Medvedev 2010: 574).
Malacosoma Chevrolat, 1836: 379
Originally included available species: Crioceris abdominalis Schönherr, 1808; Chrysomela lusitanica Linnaeus, 1767 (as “Lusitanica. Olivier.”); Galeruca nigripes Olivier, 1791 (as “Nigripes. Encyclopédie.”); Cistela testacea Fabricius, 1775.
Type species: Chrysomela lusitanica Linnaeus, 1767 by monotypy.
Current status: junior homonym of Malacosoma Hübner, 1820 [Lepidoptera]; senior objective synonym of Exosoma Jacoby, 1903 in Chrysomelidae (fideBeenen 2010: 475).
Comments. The names abdominalis, nigripes, and testacea are listed in synonymy with lusitanica in Dejean’s catalogue; therefore the type species of Malacosoma is lusitanica by monotypy (ICZN 1999: Article 68.3).
Megalostomis Chevrolat, 1836: 416
Originally included available species: Clytra auricapilla Germar, 1824; Clytra bicincta Germar, 1824; Clytra boopis Germar, 1824 (as “Boopis. Hoffmansegg.”); Clythra cingulata Latreille, 1809; Clythra dominicana Fabricius, 1801; Clytra tetrastigma Germar, 1824.
Type species: Clytra boopis Germar, 1824 by subsequent designation (Monrós 1953: 46).
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideRiley et al. 2003: 179).
Melina Chevrolat, 1836: 409
Originally included available species: none.
Melitonoma Chevrolat, 1836: 419
Originally included available species: Cryptocephalus pallens Fabricius, 1787.
Type species: Cryptocephalus pallens Fabricius, 1787 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideRegalin and Medvedev 2010: 574).
Comments. Monrós (1953: 46) designated Clytra decempunctata Olivier, 1808 as type species of Melitonoma Chevrolat and this species is the type species listed for this genus by Regalin and Medvedev (2010: 574). However, Clytra decempunctata Olivier is listed as a species inquirendum in Dejean’s catalogue. The sole available species listed by Chevrolat (1836: 419) is Cryptocephalus pallens Fabricius and this species is currently included in the genus Diapromorpha Lacordaire, 1848 (Regalin and Medvedev 2010: 569). A request to the Commission is necessary to retain Clytra decempunctata Olivier as type species of Melitonoma Chevrolat.
Menalcas Dejean, 1836a: 413
Originally included available species: none.
Metachroma Chevrolat, 1836: 412
Originally included available species: Eumolpus aterrimus Olivier, 1808; Cryptocephalus canellus Fabricius, 1801; Colaspis quadrinotata Say, 1824; Colaspis quercata Fabricius, 1801.
Type species: Colaspis quercata Fabricius, 1801 by subsequent designation (Crotch 1873a: 41).
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideRiley et al. 2003: 135).

Originally included available species: Colaspis chloroptera Germar, 1824; Colaspis granulata Germar, 1821; Colaspis quadrimaculata Olivier, 1808; Colaspis testacea Fabricius, 1801.
Type species: Colaspis testacea Fabricius, 1801 by subsequent designation (Monrós and Bechyné 1956: 1125).
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideSeeno and Wilcox 1982: 58).
Comments. The spelling Metaxyonycha is an incorrect subsequent spelling of Metazyonycha in prevailing usage and attributed to the publication of the original spelling; therefore Metaxyonycha is deemed to be the correct original spelling (ICZN 1999: Article 33.3.1).
Metazycera Chevrolat, 1836: 364
Originally included available species: Hispa trimaculata Olivier, 1808.
Type species: Hispa trimaculata Olivier, 1808 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideStaines 2010: 2).

Microrhopala Chevrolat, 1836: 365
Originally included available species: Hispa excavata Olivier, 1808; Hispa vittata Fabricius, 1798.
Type species: Hispa vittata Fabricius, 1798 by subsequent designation (Monrós and Bechyné 1956: 1135).
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideSeeno and Wilcox 1982: 161).
Microtheca Dejean, 1836a: 395
Originally included available species: none.
Monachus Chevrolat, 1836: 425
Originally included available species: Cryptocephalus saponatus Fabricius, 1801.
Type species: Cryptocephalus saponatus Fabricius, 1801 by monotypy.
Current status: junior homonym of Monachus Fleming, 1822 [Mammalia]; senior objective synonym of Lexiphanes Gistel, 1848 in Chrysomelidae (fideSeeno and Wilcox 1982: 38).
Monolepta Chevrolat, 1836: 383
Originally included available species: Crioceris apicalis Sahlberg, 1823; Crioceris bioculata Fabricius, 1781; Crioceris humeralis Fabricius, 1801; Altica limbata Olivier, 1808; Galleruca luteicollis Boisduval, 1835 (as “Luteicollis. d’Urville.”); Crioceris neglecta Sahlberg, 1823; Crioceris quadrinotata Fabricius, 1801; Crioceris rubra Gyllenhal, 1808 (as “Rubra. Schönherr.”); Crioceris semicincta Sahlberg, 1823; Galleruca subsulcata Boisduval, 1835 (as “Subsulcata. d’Urville.”).
Type species: Crioceris bioculata Fabricius, 1781 by subsequent designation (Chevrolat 1845: 5).
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideBeenen 2010: 482).
Monomacra Chevrolat, 1836: 389
Originally included available species: Haltica capitata Illiger, 1807; Haltica inermis Klug, 1829; Altica tibialis Olivier, 1808.
Type species: Haltica inermis Klug, 1829 by subsequent designation (Monrós and Bechyné 1956: 1133).
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideRiley et al. 2003: 124).
Comments. The first valid type species designation for Monomacra Chevrolat is that of Chevrolat (1845: 6) who selected Altica tibialis Olivier, 1808. This species is currently included in the genus Parchicola Bechyné and Springlovà de Bechyné (Riley et al. 2003: 124). An application to the Commission is needed to conserve Haltica inermis Klug as type species of this genus.
Monoplatus Chevrolat, 1836: 383
Originally included available species: none.
Mycotretus Chevrolat, 1836: 428

Dej.”); Erotylus puncticollis Duponchel, 1825 (as “Puncticollis. Dej.”); Erotylus quadripunctatus Olivier, 1791; Erotylus scriptus Olivier, 1807; Erotylus tigrinus Olivier, 1791; Erotylus variabilis Duponchel, 1825 (as “Variabilis. Dej.”).
Type species: Erotylus ornatus Duponchel, 1825 by subsequent designation (Alvarenga 1965: 87).
Current status: name suppressed in Erotylidae.
Comments. This name was suppressed for the purposes of the Principles of Priority and Homonymy in Opinion 1824 (ICZN 1996a).
Myocera Dejean, 1836a: 382
Originally included available species: none.
Myochrous Chevrolat, 1836: 414

Originally included available species: Cassida echinata Fabricius, 1801.
Type species: Cassida echinata Fabricius, 1801 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideBorowiec and Sekerka 2010: 389).
Notozona Chevrolat, 1836: 394
Originally included available species: Altica bifasciata Olivier, 1789.
Type species: Altica bifasciata Olivier, 1789 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideSeeno and Wilcox 1982: 128).
Ochralea Chevrolat, 1836: 375
Originally included available species: Adorium flavum Olivier, 1807.
Type species: Adorium flavum Olivier, 1807 by monotypy.
Current status: junior subjective synonym of Oides Weber, 1801 in Chrysomelidae (fideBeenen 2010: 491).
Octotoma Dejean, 1836a: 366
Originally included available species: Hispa plicatula Fabricius, 1801.
Type species: Hispa plicatula Fabricius, 1801 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideRiley et al. 2003: 28).
Odontionopa Chevrolat, 1836: 408
Originally included available species: Colaspis dentipes Wiedemann, 1821; Colaspis sericea Gyllenhal, 1808.
Type species: Colaspis sericea Gyllenhal, 1808 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideSeeno and Wilcox 1982: 54).
Comments. The name dentipes is listed in synonymy with sericea in Dejean’s catalogue; therefore the type species of Odontionopa is sericea by monotypy (ICZN 1999: Article 68.3).
Odontoderes Chevrolat, 1836: 420
Originally included available species: none.
Odontota Chevrolat, 1836: 364
Originally included available species: Hispa bicolor Olivier, 1792; Hispa dentata Fabricius, 1787; Hispa humeralis Fabricius, 1801; Hispa nigrita Olivier, 1808; Hispa notata Olivier, 1808; Hispa ruficollis Fabricius, 1801; Hispa sanguinicollis Linnaeus, 1771 (as “Sanguinicollis. Fabr.”); Hispa scapularis Olivier, 1808; Hispa scutellaris Olivier, 1808.
Type species: Hispa humeralis Fabricius, 1801 by subsequent designation (Monrós and Bechyné 1956: 1135).
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideSeeno and Wilcox 1982: 160).
Oedipodes Dejean, 1836a: 384 (as “Oedipodes. Illiger.”)
Originally included available species: none.
Oligocera Chevrolat, 1836: 382
Originally included available species: none.

Originally included available species: Erotylus discoideus Olivier, 1807.
Type species: Erotylus discoideus Olivier, 1807 (= Erotylus cinctus Herbst, 1799) by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Erotylidae (fideAlvarenga 1965: 87).
Comments. As mentioned by Alvarenga (1965: 87), Oligocorynus Chevrolat, 1836 is a senior synonym of Alloiotelus Hope, 1841.
Omaspides Chevrolat, 1836: 371
Originally included available species: Cassida clatrata Linnaeus, 1758 (as “Clathrata. Olivier.”); Cassida transversa Fabricius, 1798; Cassida trifasciata Fabricius, 1787.
Type species: Cassida transversa Fabricius, 1798 (= Cassida clatrata Linnaeus, 1758) by subsequent designation (Hope 1840: 158).
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideBorowiec 1999: 120).
Omophoita Chevrolat, 1836: 386
Originally included available species: Galleruca abbreviata Fabricius, 1798; Chrysomela aequinoctialis Linnaeus, 1758 (as “Æquinoctialis.

Type species: Chrysomela aequinoctialis Linnaeus, 1758 by subsequent designation (Chevrolat 1845: 6).
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideSeeno and Wilcox 1982: 140).
Comments. The type species of Omophoita designated by Monrós and Bechyné (1956: 1134), Chrysomela equestris Fabricius, 1787, is a species inquirendum in Dejean’s catalogue and so is not an originally included species.
Omoteina Chevrolat, 1836: 374
Originally included available species: Cassida humeralis Olivier, 1808.
Type species: Cassida humeralis Olivier, 1808 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideBorowiec 1999: 166).

Fabr.”); Chrysomela sulcata Gebler, 1823; Chrysomela tristis Fabricius, 1792.
Type species: Chrysomela speciosa Linnaeus, 1767 by subsequent designation (Chevrolat 1843: 656).
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideKippenberg 2010: 422).
Oxygona Chevrolat, 1836: 389
Originally included available species: none.
Ozomena Chevrolat, 1836: 379
Originally included available species: none.
Pachnephorus Chevrolat, 1836: 414
Originally included available species: Cryptocephalus arenarius Panzer, 1797 (as “Arenarius. Fabr.”); Eumolpus sabulosus Gebler, 1830; Eumolpus villosus Duftschmid, 1825 (as “Villosus. Megerle.”).
Type species: Cryptocephalus arenarius Panzer, 1797 (= Cryptocephalus pilosus Rossi, 1790) by subsequent designation (Monrós and Bechyné 1956: 1127).
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideMoseyko and Sprecher-Uebersax 2010: 627).
Pachybrachis Chevrolat, 1836: 420
Originally included available species: Cryptocephalus equestris Olivier, 1808; Cryptocephalus femoratus Olivier, 1808; Cryptocephalus glycyrhizae Olivier, 1808; Cryptocephalus hieroglyphicus Laicharting, 1781 (as “Var.

Pachyonychus Chevrolat, 1836: 384
Originally included available species: none.
Pales Chevrolat, 1836: 408
Originally included available species: Colaspis ulema Germar, 1813 (as “Ulema. Megerle.”).
Type species: Colaspis ulema Germar, 1813 by monotypy.
Current status: junior homonym of Pales Meigen, 1800 [Diptera]; senior objective synonym of Eupales Lefèvre, 1885 in Chrysomelidae (fideMoseyko and Sprecher-Uebersax 2010: 643, as “Pales Chevrolat, 1837”) for which the name Floricola Gistel, 1848 should be used as valid (see Löbl and Smetana 2011: 59).
Pandona Dejean, 1836a: 404
Originally included available species: none.
Pedema Dejean, 1836a: 384
Comments. This name was listed by Dejean as an invalid synonym of Oedionychis Latreille, 1829. The name has not been treated before 1961 as an available name and adopted as the name of a taxon or treated as a senior homonym and therefore Pedema Dejean is not available. Pedema was first used by Klug (1829: 9) but not made available.
Periscapta Chevrolat, 1836: 405
Originally included available species: none.
Phaedra Dejean, 1836a: 414
Originally included available species: none.
Philocalis Dejean, 1836a: 387
Originally included available species: Galleruca pulchra Boisduval, 1835 (as “Pulchra. d’Urville.”)
Type species: Galleruca pulchra Boisduval, 1835 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideSeeno and Wilcox 1982: 134, as “Philocalis Boisduval, 1835”).
Phratora Chevrolat, 1836: 405
Originally included available species: Chrysomela vitellinae Linnaeus, 1758 (as “Vitellinae. Fabr.”); Chrysomela vulgatissima Linnaeus, 1758 (as “Vulgatissima. Duftschmid.”).
Type species: Chrysomela vitellinae Linnaeus, 1758 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideKippenberg 2010: 394).
Comments. The name vulgatissima is listed as an invalid synonym of vitellinae in Dejean’s catalogue; therefore the type species of Phratora is vitellinae by monotypy (ICZN 1999: Article 68.3). This species was also listed as type species of Phratora by Thomson (1859: 157) and several recent authors (e.g., Kimoto 1986: 126; Riley et al. 2003: 62) use that species as type species. However, some authors (e.g., Lopatin 1977: 167; Kippenberg 2010: 394) use Chrysomela vulgatissima Linnaeus, 1758 as type species of Phratora following Motschulsky (1860: 219). Both species are currently included in different subgenera (fideKippenberg 2010: 394–395).
Phygasia Dejean, 1836a: 387
Originally included available species: Haltica helveola Dalman, 1823 (as “Helvola. Dalman.”); Altica unicolor Olivier, 1808.
Type species: Altica unicolor Olivier, 1808 (= Haltica silacea Illiger, 1807) by subsequent designation (Chevrolat 1845: 6).
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideDöberl 2010: 544).
Phyllecthris Dejean, 1836a: 382
Originally included available species: Galeruca dorsalis Olivier, 1808.
Type species: Galeruca dorsalis Olivier, 1808 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideRiley et al. 2003: 81).
Phyllobrotica Chevrolat, 1836: 381
Originally included available species: Crioceris adusta Creutzer, 1799 (as “Adusta. Fabr.”); Galleruca discoidea Fabricius, 1801; Chrysomela quadrimaculata Linnaeus, 1758 (as “Quadrimaculata. Fabr.”).
Type species: Chrysomela quadrimaculata Linnaeus, 1758 by subsequent designation (Thomson 1859: 156).
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideBeenen 2010: 486).
Phyllotreta Chevrolat, 1836: 391
Originally included available species: Haltica antennata Koch, 1803 (as “Antennata. Ent. Hefte.”); Haltica armoraciae Koch, 1803 (as “Armoraciae. Ent. Hefte.”); Altica atra Fabricius, 1775 (as “Atra. Ent. Hefte.”); Crioceris bipustulata Fabricius, 1801; Chrysomela brassicae Fabricius, 1787; Altica flexuosa Illiger, 1794 (as “Flexuosa. Ent. Hefte.)”; Haltica lepidii Koch, 1803 (as “Lepidii. Ent. Hefte.”); Chrysomela nemorum Linnaeus, 1758 (as “Nemorum. Fabr.”); Haltica obscurella Illiger, 1807.
Type species: Chrysomela nemorum Linnaeus, 1758 by subsequent designation (Desmarest 1860: 351).
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideDöberl 2010: 545).
Comments. The type species usually listed for Phyllotreta Chevrolat is Chrysomela brassicae Fabricius, 1787 (= Chrysomela exclamationis Thunberg, 1784) (e.g., Döberl 2010: 545) apparently from Chevrolat (1845: 6). However, Chevrolat’s designation of Chrysomela brassicae Fabricius is made for “Crepidodera, Phyllotreta Ch. (Orchestris Kirby),” a group of genera. It cannot be considered a valid typification for Phyllotreta. Chrysomela nemorum Linnaeus is currently included in the genus Phyllotreta Chevrolat, so the change in type species has no taxonomic impact.
Physicerus Chevrolat, 1836: 420
Originally included available species: Cryptocephalus speciosus Boisduval, 1835 (as “Speciosus. d’Urville.”).
Type species: Cryptocephalus speciosus Boisduval, 1835 by monotypy.
Current status: junior subjective synonym of Cryptocephalus Geoffroy, 1762 in Chrysomelidae (fideSeeno and Wilcox 1982: 39).
Physimerus Chevrolat, 1836: 383
Originally included available species: none.
Physocoryna Chevrolat, 1836: 365
Originally included available species: none.
Physonota Chevrolat, 1836: 374
Originally included available species: Cassida fuscata Klug, 1829 (as “Fuscata. Dej.”).
Type species: Cassida fuscata Klug, 1829 by monotypy.
Current status: senior objective of Anacassis Spaeth, 1913 in Chrysomelidae (new synonymy).
Comments. The name Physonota is attributed to Boheman (1854: 190) in the literature (e.g., Borowiec 1999: 172; Riley et al. 2002: 646) with Physonota alutacea Boheman, 1854 as type species. To conserve the current concept of the genera Anacassis and Physonota, we believe the best avenue is to apply to the Commission to reject the name Physonota Chevrolat, 1836 for the Principles of Priority and Homonymy.
Physonychis Dejean, 1836a: 384
Originally included available species: none.
Physopalpa Dejean, 1836a: 375
Originally included available species: none.
Plagiodera Chevrolat, 1836: 404
Originally included available species: Chrysomela armoraciae Linnaeus, 1758 (as “Armoriciae. Fabr.”); Chrysomela circumcincta Sahlberg, 1823; Chrysomela encausta Klug, 1829 (as “Encausta. Dej.”); Chrysomela jucunda Klug, 1829 (as “Jucunda. Dej.”); Chrysomela nigriventris Germar, 1824; Chrysomela pallidiventris Germar, 1824; Chrysomela rufescens Gyllenhal, 1808 (as “Rufescens. Gröndal.”); Chrysomela thoracica Fabricius, 1801; Chrysomela transversa Olivier, 1807.
Type species: see comments.
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideKippenberg 2010: 392).
Comments. The type species of Plagiodera currently recognized is Chrysomela armoraciae Fabricius, 1775 (= Chrysomela versicolora Laicharting, 1781) (fideKippenberg 2010: 392). However, Fabricius (1775: 103) did not describe a new species under this name since he referred to the species described by Linnaeus in 1758 under the name Chrysomela armoraciae. We have not found any indication that Fabricius misidentified Linnaeus’ species. In fact Fabricius’ description of the species is very short and similar to that of Linnaeus. We also found no indication that Dejean misidentified Chrysomela armoraciae. Therefore the type species of Plagiodera is Chrysomela armoraciae Linnaeus, 1758 by subsequent designation (Thomson 1859: 158). This species is currently included in the genus Phaedon Latreille, 1829. To promote stability, we believe that an application to the Commission to designate Chrysomela versicolora Laicharting, 1781 as the type species of Plagiodera is the best avenue.
Planagetes Chevrolat, 1836: 404
Originally included available species: none.
Platycorynus Chevrolat, 1836: 413
Originally included available species: Eumolpus bifasciatus Olivier, 1808; Eumolpus chrysis Olivier, 1808; Eumolpus compressicornis Fabricius, 1801; Chrysomela cyanea Fabricius, 1792; Eumolpus groendalii Swartz, 1808; Eumolpus senegalensis Olivier, 1808.
Type species: Eumolpus compressicornis Fabricius, 1801 by subsequent designation (Chapuis 1874: 339).
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideMoseyko and Sprecher-Uebersax 2010: 633).
Plectroscelis Chevrolat, 1836: 393
Originally included available species: Galeruca aridella Paykull, 1799; Haltica aridula Gyllenhal, 1827; Haltica dentipes Koch, 1803 (as “Dentipes. Ent. Hefte.”); Haltica mannerheimii Gyllenhal, 1827; Haltica sahlbergii Gyllenhal, 1827.
Type species: Haltica aridula Gyllenhal, 1827 by subsequent designation (Monrós and Bechyné 1956: 1134).
Current status: junior subjective synonym of Chaetocnema Stephens, 1831 in Chrysomelidae (fideDöberl 2010: 505).
Comments. Konstantinov et al. (2011: 17) listed Haltica dentipes sensu Olivier, 1808 (= Altica chlorophana Duftschmid, 1825) as type species of Plectroscelis Chevrolat by subsequent designation in Chevrolat (1845: 6). However, Chevrolat (1845: 6) listed the type species as “Alt. dentipes Ol.” and it is evident that he considered Altica dentipes Olivier and Altica dentipes Koch as two different species (see Chevrolat 1847b: 267). Therefore his type species designation of Altica dentipes sensu Olivier is invalid since Olivier’s taxon is not originally included in Dejean’s catalogue.
Pleuraulaca Chevrolat, 1836: 409
Originally included available species: Eumolpus bicolor Olivier, 1808; Colaspis dives Germar, 1824; Chrysomela glabrata Fabricius, 1792; Colaspis limbata Olivier, 1808.
Type species: Colaspis dives Germar, 1824 by subsequent designation (Monrós and Bechyné 1956: 1125).
Current status: senior subjective synonym of Iphimeis Baly, 1864 in Chrysomelidae (fideSeeno and Wilcox 1982: 57).
Comments. Monrós and Bechyné (1956) designated two type species for this genus under two distinct entries, one (Colaspis dives Germar) under Paraulaca Chevrolat (p. 1125), evidently an error for Pleuraulaca, and the other one (Colaspis limbataOlivier) under Pleuraulaca Chevrolat (p. 1128). The first type species designation is accepted here as the valid one because Colaspis dives Germar is currently included in the genus Iphimeis Baly while the second type species (Colaspis limbata Olivier) is included in the genus Eriphylina Lefèvre, 1891 (e.g., Bechyné 1953: 168, 176).
Pleuraulaca Chevrolat, 1836 has precedence over Iphimeis Baly, 1864 which is currently used as valid (e.g., Bechyné 1953: 168). Reversal of Precedence (ICZN 1999: Article 23.9) or an application to the Commission is necessary to conserve usage of the name Iphimeis Baly, 1864.
Pleurophora Chevrolat, 1836: 361
Originally included available species: none
Plusiopeplis Dejean, 1836a: 414
Originally included available species: none.
Podagrica Chevrolat, 1836: 394
Originally included available species: Altica aeneipennis Latreille, 1813; Haltica dilecta Dalman, 1823; Crioceris fulvipes Fabricius, 1801; Chrysomela fuscicornis Linnaeus, 1767; Altica fuscipes Fabricius, 1775; Haltica malvae Illiger, 1807.
Type species: Altica fuscipes Fabricius, 1775 by subsequent designation (Maulik 1926: 273).
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideDöberl 2010: 550).
Comments. The designation of Haltica malvae Illiger, 1807 as type-species by Monrós and Bechyné (1956: 1133) is invalid because of the prior valid typification by Maulik (1926: 273).
Polychalca Chevrolat, 1836: 368
Originally included available species: Cassida antiqua Klug, 1829 (as “Antiqua. Dej.”); Cassida metallica Klug, 1829 (as “Metallica. Dej.”); Cassida platynota Germar, 1824; Cassida variolosa Weber, 1801 (as “Variolosa. Fabr.”).
Type species: Cassida variolosa Weber, 1801 (= Cassida punctatissima Wolf, 1818) by subsequent designation (Duponchel and Chevrolat 1842b: 211).
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideBorowiec 1999: 57).
Polyclada Chevrolat, 1836: 375
Originally included available species: Clytra pectinicornis Olivier, 1791.
Type species: Clytra pectinicornis Olivier, 1791 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideDöberl 2010: 551).
Polygramma Chevrolat, 1836: 397
Originally included available species: Chrysomela juncta Germar, 1824.
Type species: Chrysomela juncta Germar, 1824 by monotypy.
Current status: name suppressed in Chrysomelidae.
Comments. This name was suppressed in Opinion 1290 by the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature for the purposes of the Principle of Priority and placed on the Official Index of Rejected and Invalid Generic Names in Zoology as “Polygramma Chevrolat, 1837” (ICZN 1985a).
Prionocheilus Chevrolat, 1836: 427
Originally included available species: none.
Prionodera Chevrolat, 1836: 407
Originally included available species: Colaspis bicolor Olivier, 1808.
Type species: Colaspis bicolor Olivier, 1808 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideSeeno and Wilcox 1982: 58).
Promecosoma Chevrolat, 1836: 409
Originally included available species: none.
Promecotheca Dejean, 1836a: 363
Originally included available species: none.
Proseicela Chevrolat, 1836: 398
Originally included available species: Chrysomela vittata Fabricius, 1781.
Type species: Chrysomela vittata Fabricius, 1781 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideSeeno and Wilcox 1982: 79).
Protophysus Chevrolat, 1836: 422
Originally included available species: Chryptocephalus haemorrhoidalis Olivier, 1791 (as “♀. Haemorrhoidalis. Fabr.”); Cryptocephalus lobatus Fabricius, 1792.
Type species: Cryptocephalus lobatus Fabricius, 1792 (= Cryptocephalus schaefferi Schrank, 1789) by monotypy.
Current status: valid subgenus of Cryptocephalus Geoffroy, 1762 in Chrysomelidae (fideLopatin et al. 2010: 606).
Comments. The name haemorrhoidalis is listed in synonymy with lobatus in Dejean’s catalogue; therefore the type species of Protophysus is lobatus by monotypy (ICZN 1999: Article 68.3).
Prototrigona Chevrolat, 1836: 387
Originally included available species: none.
Ptena Chevrolat, 1836: 386
Originally included available species: Altica cruciata Olivier, 1808; Chrysomela nobilitata Fabricius, 1787; Haltica ornata Illiger, 1807; Chrysomela quadrifasciata Fabricius, 1787.
Type species: Chrysomela nobilitata Fabricius, 1787 by subsequent designation (Chevrolat 1845: 6).
Current status: invalid synonym of Omophoita Chevrolat, 1836 in Chrysomelidae (fideSeeno and Wilcox 1982: 140).
Pyxis Dejean, 1836a: 404
Originally included available species: none.

Originally included available species: Crioceris abdominalis Fabricius, 1781; Chrysomela coffeae Hornstedt, 1788 (as “Coffeae. Herbst.”); Gallerica ioptera Wiedemann, 1823 (as “Eoptera. Wiedemann.”); Galleruca oblonga Gyllenhal, 1808 (as “Oblonga. Schönherr.”); Galeruca similis Olivier, 1808.
Type species: Crioceris abdominalis Fabricius, 1781 by subsequent designation (Chevrolat 1845: 6).
Current status: invalid synonym of Aulacophora Chevrolat, 1836 in Chrysomelidae (fideBeenen 2010: 465).
Rhinotmetus Chevrolat, 1836: 383
Originally included available species: none.
Rhombopalpa Chevrolat, 1836: 375
Originally included available species: Adorium decempunctatum Billberg, 1808 (as “Decempunctata. Schönherr.”).
Type species: Adorium decempunctatum Billberg, 1808 by monotypy.
Current status: junior subjective synonym of Oides Weber, 1801 in Chrysomelidae (fideBeenen 2010: 491).
Romalocera Dejean, 1836a: 389
Originally included available species: none.
Rumina Dejean, 1836a: 414
Originally included available species: none.
Saccomorphus Chevrolat, 1836: 426
Originally included available species: Erotylus abdominalis Fabricius, 1792; Erotylus bimaculatus Duponchel, 1825 (as “Bimaculatus. Dej.”); Erotylus clavicornis Olivier, 1791; Erotylus limbatus Olivier, 1791 (as “Limbatus. Fabr.”); Erotylus quadrisignatus Duponchel, 1825.
Type species: Erotylus limbatus Olivier, 1791 by subsequent designation (Alvarenga 1965: 89).
Current status: valid genus in Erotylidae (fideAlvarenga 1965: 89).
Comments. As mentioned by Alvarenga (1965: 89), Saccomorphus Chevrolat, 1836 is a senior synonym of Morphoides Hope, 1841.
Sceloenopla Chevrolat, 1836: 364
Originally included available species: Hispa spinipes Fabricius, 1794.
Type species: Hispa spinipes Fabricius, 1794 (= Hispa maculata Olivier, 1792) by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideSeeno and Wilcox 1982: 159).
Schematiza Chevrolat, 1836: 377
Originally included available species: Galleruca flavofasciata Klug, 1829 (as “Flavofasciata. Dej.”); Lycus laevigatus Fabricius, 1801.
Type species: Lycus laevigatus Fabricius, 1801 by subsequent designation (Barber 1947a: 242).
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideSeeno and Wilcox 1982: 101).
Smaragdina Chevrolat, 1836: 420
Originally included available species: Cryptocephalus concolor Fabricius, 1792; Clytra dorsalis Olivier, 1808; Clythra menetriesii Faldermann, 1832.
Type species: Clythra menetriesii Faldermann, 1832 (= Clytra unipunctata Olivier, 1808) by subsequent designation (Monrós 1953: 46).
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideRegalin and Medvedev 2010: 575).
Spartophila Chevrolat, 1836: 403
Originally included available species: Chrysomela aegrota Fabricius, 1798; Chrysomela caraganae Gebler, 1823; Chrysomela flavicans Fabricius, 1787 (as “Var. Flavicans. Olivier.”); Chrysomela litura Fabricius, 1775; Chrysomela sexnotata Fabricius, 1798; Chrysomela sexpunctata Fabricius, 1787; Chrysomela spartii Olivier, 1807; Chrysomela variabilis Olivier, 1790.
Type species: Chrysomela litura Fabricius, 1775 (= Chrysomela olivacea Forster, 1771) by subsequent designation (Chevrolat 1843: 656).
Current status: valid subgenus of Gonioctena Chevrolat, 1836 in Chrysomelidae (fideKippenberg 2010: 436, as “Spartophila Stephens, 1834”).
Comments. The name Spartophila is usually credited to Stephens (1834: 340) from the Illustrations of British Entomology (e.g., Weise 1916: 182; Seeno and Wilcox 1982: 85; Kippenberg 2010: 436). However, we were unable to find this name in Stephen’s Illustrations of British Entomology. The first typification for Spartophila is that of Hope (1840: 163) who selected Chrysomela spartii Olivier, 1807 (= Chrysomela variabilis Olivier, 1790). This species is currently included in the subgenus Spartoxena Motschulsky, 1860 (fideKippenberg 2010: 437) and its acceptance as type species of Spartophila will bring nomenclatural changes. A request to the Commission is needed to suppress the typification of Hope (1840).
Sphaerometopa Chevrolat, 1836: 387
Originally included available species: Haltica acroleuca Wiedemann, 1819.
Type species: Haltica acroleuca Wiedemann, 1819 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideSeeno and Wilcox 1982: 141).
Sphaeronychus Dejean, 1836a: 383 (as “Sphraeronychus. Dejean.”)
Originally included available species: Altica melanura Olivier, 1808.
Type species: Altica melanura Olivier, 1808 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideSeeno and Wilcox 1982: 141).
Comments. The spelling Sphaeronychus is an incorrect subsequent spelling of Sphraeronychus in prevailing usage and attributed to the publication of the original spelling; therefore Sphaeronychus is deemed to be the correct original spelling (ICZN 1999: Article 33.3.1).
Sphaeropalpus Chevrolat, 1836: 367
Originally included available species: none.
Sphaeropis Chevrolat, 1836: 410
Originally included available species: none.
Sphaeroplacis Chevrolat, 1836: 409
Originally included available species: none.
Sphaeropomis Dejean, 1836a: 393
Originally included available species: none.
Spintherophyta Dejean, 1836a: 410
Originally included available species: Colaspis nana Klug, 1829 (as “Nana. Dej.”); Colaspis semiaurata Klug, 1829.
Type species: Colaspis semiaurata Klug, 1829 by subsequent designation (Monrós and Bechyné 1956: 1124).
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideRiley et al. 2003: 148).
Stenodiloba Chevrolat, 1836: 407
Originally included available species: none.
Stilodes Chevrolat, 1836: 403
Originally included available species: Chrysomela humeralis Gory, 1833.
Type species: Chrysomela humeralis Gory, 1833 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideSeeno and Wilcox 1982: 79).
Strabala Chevrolat, 1836: 389
Originally included available species: none.
Comments. This name is considered valid with Altica ferruginea Olivier, 1808 as type species (Riley et al. 2003: 123). However this species and Altica scutellaris Olivier, 1808, the second available species listed by Chevrolat (1836: 389) under the genus Strabala, have question marks after the species names and so are considered species inquiranda (see “Methods” section). These species are deemed not to be originally included (ICZN 1999: Article 67.2.5). The name Strabala was subsequently used by Chevrolat (1848: 52) who listed this time the two Olivier’s species without question marks. Therefore, this name should be credited to Chevrolat (1848) as indicated by Blake (1953: 121–122).
Strichosa Chevrolat, 1836: 397
Originally included available species: none.
Strigophorus Chevrolat, 1836: 422
Originally included available species: none.
Strongylosomus Chevrolat, 1836: 427
Originally included available species: Erotylus brevicornis Duponchel, 1825 (as “Brevicornis. Dej.”); Erotylus coccinelloides Duponchel, 1825 (as “Coccinelloides. Dej.”); Erotylus nigripes Duponchel, 1825 (as “Nigripes. Dej.”); Erotylus unicolor Olivier, 1807 (as “Unicolor. Latreille. Olivier?”).
Type species: Erotylus unicolor Olivier, 1807 by subsequent designation (Crotch 1876: 487).
Current status: valid genus in Erotylidae (fideAlvarenga 1965: 90).
Comments. As mentioned by Alvarenga (1965: 90), Strongylosomus Chevrolat, 1836 is a senior synonym of Coccimorphus Hope, 1841.
Strongylotarsa Chevrolat, 1836: 410
Originally included available species: none.
Syneta Dejean, 1835: 359 and 1836a: 361 (as “Syneta. Eschscholtz”)
Originally included available species: Crioceris betulae Fabricius, 1792.
Type species: Crioceris betulae Fabricius, 1792 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideSilfverberg 2010: 643, as “Syneta Chevrolat, 1837”).
Systena Chevrolat, 1836: 390
Originally included available species: Galleruca elongata Fabricius, 1798 (as “Elongata. Olivier.”); Galleruca frontalis Fabricius, 1801; Haltica striolata Schönherr, 1808.
Type species: Galleruca frontalis Fabricius, 1801 by subsequent designation (Monrós and Bechyné 1956: 1133).
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideRiley et al. 2003: 102).
Tachypetes Chevrolat, 1836: 419
Originally included available species: none.
Teinodactyla Chevrolat, 1836: 392
Comments. This name is treated as an unnecessary replacement name for Longitarsus Latreille, 1829 [Chrysomelidae].
Tetraphala Chevrolat, 1836: 430
Originally included available species: none.
Thalassia Chevrolat, 1836: 430
Originally included available species: none.
Thyra Dejean, 1836a: 410
Originally included available species: none.
Thyreomorpha Dejean, 1836a: 367
Originally included available species: none.
Thysbe Dejean, 1836a: 411
Originally included available species: none.
Trichostola Chevrolat, 1836: 411
Originally included available species: none.
Typocephalus Chevrolat, 1836: 427
Originally included available species: none.
Comments. The type species cited by Alvarenga (1965: 90) for Typocephalus Chevrolat, Erotylus dimidiatus Olivier, 1792, is a species inquirandum in Dejean’s catalogue and therefore is not an originally included species (ICZN 1999: Article 67.2.5). The name Typocephalus should be credited to Hope (1841: 113) who first made the name available by describing the genus and selecting Erotylus dimidiatus Olivier, 1792 as type species.
Typophorus Chevrolat, 1836: 412
Originally included available species: Eumolpus cyanellus Boisduval, 1835 (as “Cyanellus. d’Urville.”); Eumolpus nigritus Fabricius, 1801; Eumolpus spinipes Latreille, 1813.
Type species: Eumolpus nigritus Fabricius, 1801 by subsequent designation (Monrós and Bechyné 1956: 1127).
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideRiley et al. 2003: 141).
Uroplata Chevrolat, 1836: 365
Originally included available species: Hispa hastata Fabricius, 1801; Hispa inaequalis Weber, 1801; Hispa mucronata Olivier, 1808; Hispa quadrata Fabricius, 1801; Hispa truncata Fabricius, 1801 (as “Truncata. Olivier”).
Type species: Hispa mucronata Olivier, 1808 by subsequent designation (Monrós and Bechyné 1956: 1135).
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideSeeno and Wilcox 1982: 161).
Comments. Uroplata Chevrolat was placed on the official List of Generic Names in Zoology in Opinion 1359 (ICZN 1985b) with Hispa mucronata Olivier as the type species designated by White (1981: 714).
Zygogramma Chevrolat, 1836: 398
Originally included available species: Chrysomela decora Klug, 1829 (as “Decora. Dej.”); Chrysomela deleta Klug, 1829 (as “Deleta. Dej.”); Chrysomela elegans Olivier, 1808; Chrysomela pulcra Fabricius, 1792 (as “Pulchra. Fabr.”); Chrysomela quadrivittata Latreille, 1813; Chrysomela tetragramma Klug, 1829 (as “Tetragramma. Dej.”).
Type species: Chrysomela pulcra Fabricius, 1792 (= Chrysomela suturalis Fabricius, 1775) by subsequent designation (Motschulsky 1860: 181).
Current status: valid genus in Chrysomelidae (fideKippenberg 2010: 426).
Trimères
Ancylopus Chevrolat, 1836: 439 (as “Agcylopus. Chevrolat.”)
Originally included available species: Endomychus melanocephalus Olivier, 1808.
Type species: Endomychus melanocephalus Olivier, 1808 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Endomychidae (fideShockley et al. 2009: 31).
Comments. The spelling Ancylopus is an incorrect subsequent spelling of Agcylopus in prevailing usage, attributed to the publication of the original spelling, and so deemed to be the correct original spelling (ICZN 1999: Article 33.3.1).
Anisosticta Chevrolat, 1836: 432
Originally included available species: Coccinella bissexpunctata Latreille, 1813; Coccinella decemmaculata Fabricius, 1781; Coccinella m-nigrum Fabricius, 1792; Coccinella novemdecimpunctata Linnaeus, 1758 (as “Novemdecimpunctata. Fabr.”); Coccinella 18.pustulata Klug, 1829 (as “Octodecimpustulata. Dej.”); Coccinella quadrifasciata Thunberg, 1808.
Type species: Coccinella novemdecimpunctata Linnaeus, 1758 by subsequent designation (Crotch 1874: 93).
Current status: valid genus in Coccinellidae (fideKovář 2007: 599).
Aploscelis Chevrolat, 1836: 439
Originally included available species: Eumorphus atratus Klug, 1833.
Type species: Eumorphus atratus Klug, 1833 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Endomychidae (fideShockley et al. 2009: 51, as “Haploscelis Blanchard, 1845”).
Comments. This generic name is usually credited to Blanchard (1845: 312) under the spelling Haploscelis (e.g., Strohecker 1953: 81; Tomaszewska 2005: 43; Shockley et al. 2009: 51). This spelling is in prevailing usage but not attributed to the original author (see ICZN 1999: Article 33.3.1). Therefore the original spelling used by Chevrolat must be retained.
Brachiacantha Chevrolat, 1836: 432
Originally included available species: Coccinella bisquinquepustulata Fabricius, 1801; Coccinella bistripustulata Fabricius, 1801; Coccinella dentipes Fabricius, 1801; Coccinella ursina Fabricius, 1787.
Type species: Coccinella dentipes Fabricius, 1801 by subsequent designation (Crotch 1873b: 377).
Current status: valid genus in Coccinellidae (fideGordon 1985: 556).
Cheilomenes Chevrolat, 1836: 435

Type species: Coccinella lunata Fabricius, 1775 by subsequent designation (Crotch 1874: 179).
Current status: valid genus in Coccinellidae (fideKovář 2007: 610).
Comments. This genus-group name is sometimes reported under the spelling Chilomenes. However, Cheilomenes seems in prevailing usage as seen by a search through the Zoological Records for the last 20 years.
Chnoodes Chevrolat, 1836: 437
Originally included available species: none.
Chnootriba Chevrolat, 1836: 436
Originally included available species: Coccinella erythromela Wiedemann, 1821; Coccinella similis Thunberg, 1781 (as “Similis. Herbst.”).
Type species: Coccinella similis Thunberg, 1781 by monotypy.
Current status: valid genus in Coccinellidae (fideKovář 2007: 626).
Comments. The name erythromela is listed in synonymy with similis in Dejean’s catalogue; therefore the type species of Chnootriba is similis by monotypy (ICZN 1999: Article 68.3).
Corynomalus Chevrolat, 1836: 439
Originally included available species: Aegithus cinctus Fabricius, 1801 (as “Cinctus. Olivier.”); Eumorphus cruciger Latreille, 1809; Eumorphus limbatus Olivier, 1808.

Current status: valid genus in Coccinellidae (fideKovář 2007: 616).
Hylaia Chevrolat, 1836: 440
Originally included available species: none.
Comments. This taxon is incorrectly credited to Chevrolat (1836: 440) by Tomaszewska (2007: 564) and Shockley et al. (2009: 52) with Lycoperdina rubricollis Germar, 1844 as type species. Hylaia was first made available by Germar (1844: pl. 18) who proposed the name in synonymy with Lycoperdina Latreille, 1807. The name is available from Germar (1844) because it was used as a valid name before 1961 (e.g., Guérin-Méneville 1857: 273) (ICZN 1999: Article 11.6.1).
