 Comments
       
  Comment: Per the ICZN Principle of Coordination (Art. 36.1) authorship for all the family-group names (from superfamily to subtribe) based on the genus Emballonura Temminck 1838 should have identical authorship, based on the first available use of such a name at any of those ranks. This appears to trace to Gervais' (1855:62, footnote 1) use of 'Emballonurina' as a tribe (corrected to Emballonurini per Art. 29.2)
