  Lorisidae - Wikispecies
The original form of the name was Loridae (see Jenkins [1987:1] and McKenna and Bell [1997], but the more commonly used form Lorisidae was conserved by Opinion 1995 of the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature (2002).
(1998) recognized two subfamilies, Lorinae and Perodicticinae, for the Asian and African genera respectively, and included Galagoninae as a third subfamily.
McKenna and Bell (1997) included Galagoninae and Lorinae as subfamilies, with Lorini (Arctocebus and Loris) and Nycticebini (Nycticebus and Perodicticus) as tribes; but their tribes are not monophyletic (Groves, 2001c).
