• Scrutiny:
  • Skejo, 2016, Re-organization of Scelimeninae species within genera is necessary. It is necessary to have good redescriptions of all type species to see on which characters to base genera, and not according to differences in keys, which are not satisfactory.
• Type genus:  Scelimena Serville, 1838; priority for family-group names based on Scelimena dates from Scelimenae Bolívar, I., 1887.  First use as Scelimeninae by Bey-Bienko & Mistshenko, 1951.
