Alatalitlidae

Alatalitlidae is a zoological family name that has appeared in a small number of sources but is not recognized by major taxonomic databases or by contemporary taxonomic literature. There is no published formal description, diagnosis, or type genus for the group, and the name is therefore not considered a valid name under the rules of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature. In most catalogues, Alatalitlidae is treated as a nomen nudum or as an unused designation, with no consensus on its taxonomic scope.

Because there is no diagnostic material or cited species, there is no accepted placement within a higher taxon. Some listings with this name are inconsistent and may reflect mis-spellings, misidentifications, or obsolete notions rather than a recognized lineage. Consequently, the generic or species-level content, if any, remains unestablished.

Etymology, intended rank, and history are unclear due to the absence of a published description. The form suggests a construction based on a root or genus name, but no primary source is available to confirm origin or meaning. Until a formal description appears in a peer-reviewed work or a recognized taxonomic database, Alatalitlidae remains an unresolved and non-authenticated taxon name.
