#312110 [Attidae Shuckard, 1840e: 174, is rejected as a family-group name as it appears in the text to be a plural noun or adjective referring to the members of a genus.]
#312118 [Attina Sosa-Calvo et al., 2017: 2; Sosa-Calvo et al., 2018: 549; Sosa-Calvo et al., 2019: 140; Solomon et al., 2019: 940 [as subtribe of Myrmicinae tribe Attini]. Unavailable name; in all cases proposed without morphological diagnosis. Note: in the publications cited Attina is referred to as “fungus growing ants”, or “fungus farming ants”, or are stated to “rely exclusively on basidiomycete fungi”. It is undecided if such statements would satisfy the provisions of ICZN Article 13.]

#278988 [Attini as junior synonym of Pheidolini: Fernández & Serna, 2019: 829.]
#312115 [Note: the name Attini (1858) is easily senior to Pheidolini (1877), but Fernández & Serna, 2019: 829, suggest Pheidolini as the name for the tribe, apparently so that Attini can be reserved for the Neotropical fungus growers. The compiler of this catalogue maintains temporal priority, pending an appeal by the authors to the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature, the only body which can approve such a drastic change of usage; the proposed change is not supported here.]
