Lingafelter, December 2016 (Disteniidae are in a different family than Cerambycidae. All four families (Cerambycidae, Disteniidae, Oxypeltidae, Vesperidae) are collectively referred to as longhorned beetles; while the terms longhorned beetles, longicorns, capricorns, round-headed borers, timber beetles, goat beetles (bock-käfern), or sawyer beetles are used for Cerambycidae + the other families, most of those terms are obsolete and not in use in today's literature. Longhorned beetles (or longhorn beetles or Longhorned woodboring beetles) are the common names used today for Cerambycidae + allied families) Longicorn ID web site, Nov. 18, 2016: factsheets, Cerambycidae (family Cerambycidae Latreille, 1802 currently contains ~35,000 described species in 4,000 genera and 8 subfamilies--Cerambycinae, Dorcasominae, Lamiinae, Lepturinae, Necydalinae, Parandrinae, Prioninae, Spondylidinae; commonly referred to as longhorned beetles) etymology (Beetles in the family Cerambycidae are commonly referred to as longhorned beetles, longicorns, capricorns, round-headed borers, timber beetles, goat beetles (bock-käfern), or sawyer beetles) Communication with LC's Policy and Standards Division, December 15, 2016 (the references: Lamiidae, Lepturidae, and Prionidae were removed as they are families which should be established as needed; Spondylidae (Insects) and Tetropiidae have been removed as they are a synonyms for Cerambycoidea subfamilies) Insectoid.info website, December 15, 2016 (Spondylidinae--Family: Cerambycidae, Subfamily: Spondylidinae; Synonyms: Spondylidae (Gray, 1826), Tetropiidae (Joly, 1932)) |
