In my studies I've realized that while family name works as a viable search term for recently published literature, it does not always work so well for finding unpublished materials online or for searching out older articles which have not been made readily searchable via optical character recognition (OCR). These lists represent a best effort on the part of the author to assemble common names for the family Cleridae. These lists are in no way comprehensive, nor are they guarenteed to be wholly accurate.
Where possible both singular and plural versions have been provided and transliterations to a latin alphabet are supplied where available. Question marks (?) indicate that the author is uncertain about the use of a name.
