N.B.: transferred from the Ctenidae to the Zoridae by Lehtinen, 1967: 264 and the Miturgidae by Ramírez, 2014: 341; replacement name for Ctenophthalmus Simon, 1880i: 173 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:05371], preoccupied in Siphonaptera by Kolenati, 1863; Ctenomma Thorell, 1890c: 131 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:05372] is a superfluous replacement name (Lehtinen, 1967: 264); Roewer, 1955c: 601 listed Ctenonima Franganillo, 1946 as a corinnine genus (for unknown reasons, as Franganillo's description immediately follows one of a Syrisca species under a "Liocraninae" heading); however, Franganillo did not describe a new genus for the species he described as Ctenonima cubana, and evidently did not intend to do so; his statement (Franganillo, 1935a: 102) that "Dice E. Simon que la única especie del género es de Nueva Caledonia" indicates that Ctenonima is merely a lapsus for Ctenomma, which was listed in Simon's Histoire naturelle as having a single species, from New Caledonia (Franganillo's only illustration for the species, of the eye pattern, shows a ctenid-like arrangement).
