Abstract. The purpose of this application, under Article 23.9.3 of the Code, is to conserve the names Gnorimus Le Peletier de Saint-Fargeau & Serville, 1828, and Osmoderma Le Peletier de Saint-Fargeau & Serville, 1828, for dead-wood and pollen-feeding scarab beetles (SCARABAEIDAE) from the Palaearctic and North America. The names are threatened by two senior synonyms, the long forgotten but recently used names Aleurostictus Kirby, 1827 and Gymnodus Kirby, 1827, respectively. The suppression of the two senior synonyms is proposed.
