nomiidae Gozis, 1875 (Insecta, Coleoptera): spelling emended to nomiusidae to remove homonymy with nomiinae Robertson, 1904 (Insecta, Hymenoptera)
Abstract

The Commission has ruled that homonymy between the Coleoptera family-group name nomiidae Gozis, 1875 (type genus Nomius Laporte, 1835) and Hymenoptera family-group name nomiinae Robertson, 1904 (type genus Nomia Latreille, 1804) be removed by changing the spelling of the senior name (the entire generic name of Nomius is used to form nomiusidae), while the hymenopteran family-group name (based on Nomia Latreille, 1804) remains unaltered.
