Genera edit
The following genera are included in the Plectorhinchinae:[3][4][5]
- Diagramma Oken, 1817
- Genyatremus Gill, 1862
- Parapristipoma Bleeker, 1873
- Plectorhinchus Lacépède, 1801
Some authorities place the genus Genyatremus within the Haemulinae,[6] although both Fishbase and Catalog of Fishes put this genus in the subfamily Plectorhinchinae.[4][5]
