Catiniidae is a small extinct family of
which have elytra with window punctures.The family name Catiniidae Ponomarenko, 1968 is a junior homonym of
Catiniidae Bocquet and Stock, 1957, used for a family of copepods.[1] Ponomarenko and Prokin (2015) proposed "Coleocatiniidae" as a replacement name for the beetle family, but it is unavailable under the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature as it was not based on an available genus group name at the time.[2] In Kirejtshuk and Prokin (2018), Catiniidae was treated as a synonym of Triaplidae Ponomarenko, 1977,[3] but this synonymy was not supported by Ponomarenko (2021).[4]
