• Semelidae Stoliczka, 1870 (1825) [Semelidae is in prevailing usage, and is conserved under Art. 40.2 of the ICZN with the priority of Amphidesmatidae Latreille,1825. Semelidae is thus maintained and retains its own author and date (the first date cited), but takes the priority of the replaced name; the date cited in parentheses, here alluding to Amphidesmatidae Latreille,1825; see Bieler et al. (2010: 9, 79, 130)].
