The genus-group name Arhina Murray, 1876 has been used as valid for a group of beetles in the family Nitidulidae. Indeed this name is preoccupied by the available name Arhina Agassiz, 1846 (Insecta: Diptera). Arhinops nom. n. is hereby proposed as a replacement name for Arhina Murray, 1876. Correspondingly the tribal name Arhinini Kirejtshuk, 1987 is changed into Arhinopini nom. n. The composition of the tribe is reviewed. Support for the treatment of Arhinella Kirejtshuk, 1987 as a valid genus is given for the first time. Clarification regarding the distribution of the type species Arhinella congoensis Kirejtshuk, 1987, comb. n. is presented as well as new pictures of the same species.
