Abstract: Cylominae Zaitzev, 1908 is established as a valid subfamily name for Rygmodinae
Orchymont, 1916, syn. nov., due to the recent transfer of Cyloma Sharp, 1872 to
the subfamily. The history of nomenclature of the subfamily is reviewed and an
updated overview of family-group and genus-group names currently assigned to the
subfamily is provided.
