 Comments
       
  Comment: Fulgoridae and other family-group names based on the same genus (e.g., superfamily Fulgoroidea) are variously attributed to Duméril or Latreille, with years given including 1820, 1807 and 1806. E.g., Metcalf (1947) attributes them to Latreille on p.8, and to Duméril on p.9. See entries for 'Fulgorelle' (Duméril 1820:509) and 'Fulgorellae' (Latreille 1807:163) in particular
