Nomenclature *Although the family name was incorrectly spelled as“Cephalothricidae” when established, the correct spelling of the family name should be “Cephalotrichidae” under Article 29.3 of the Code (ICZN, 1999), for the name of its type genus Cephalothrix gives the genitive singular “Cephalotrichos,” and thus the stem “Cephalotrich-.” Article 29.5 of the Code (ICZN, 1999) is not applicable, since the correct spelling has been widely used, e.g., by Bürger (1895:533, 1904: 16), Wijnhoff (1913: 294), Coe (1930: 97, 1940:257), Yamaoka (1940a: 215), Hylbom (1957: 553, 1993:173), Moretto (1974: 9), Chernyshev (2004a: 152) and Tanu et al. (2004: 515)* (Kajihara 2007: 294).
Under Article 21.5 of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (4th ed.), the date of publication should be 1874, instead of 1873-1874. [details]
