• [Note: the synonymy of all basicerotine genera (Eurhopalothrix, Octostruma, Protalaridris, Rhopalothrix, Talaridris, together with their junior synonyms) under Basiceros, by Baroni Urbani & De Andrade, 2007: 88, is incorrect procedure as Rhopalothrix has priority over Basiceros. The genus-rank taxonomy documented in Bolton, 2003: 183-185, is retained here.]
