Borutzky (1932) proposed the family Baicalocamptidae fam. n., with a new genus and species, Baicalocamptus verestchagini g. n. et sp. n., but there is no evidence of incorrect original spelling of the family name Baikalocamptidae.

Canthocamptidae Sars G.O., 1906 · unaccepted (This is widely used but the...)  
This is widely used but the authority is incorrect. Sars (1906) upgraded the subfamily Canthocamptinae Brady, 1880 to family level, but in accordance to Art 36 of the ICZN (1999), the authorship must remain with Brady.
