From abstract:
The beetle series Cucujiformia is a uniquely diverse lineage 
of life on Earth, containing >173000 species. 

New superfamily - Coccinelloidea stat.n. 

Current subfamilies elevated (or re-elevated) to family status include: 
Murmidiidae stat.n., 
Teredidae stat.n., 
Euxestidae stat.n., 
Anamorphidae stat.rev., 
Eupsilobiidae stat.n.
Mycetaeidae stat.n. 

The following taxa are redefined and characterized:
Cleroidea s.n.,
Cucujoidea s.n.,
Cerylonidae s.n.,
Bothrideridae s.n.,
Endomychidae s.n. 

A new subfamily,
Cyclotominae stat.n., is described. 

Stenotarsinae syn.n. 
is formally subsumed within a new concept of 
Endomychinae s.n.
