All published family-, genus- and species-group names of the ground beetles of the world are listed in alphabetical order. Included are synonyms and the most important unavailable names, incorrect original or subsequent spellings and misidentified names. Additional information for names include: authors and dates of publication, availability, validity and taxonomic (standard) placement of names, original spelling and type genera of family-group names, gender and type species of genus-group names, and types of epithets. Species-group names are listed with their original and current generic combinations, - the latter are basically needed as "standard keywords" for the tools CarabCat and CarabMap.
