Authority On simple priority Rafinesque (1815) is the earliest to use a name close enough to Lumbricidae. On his page 135 is a higher classification “S. F. Lumbricinia”, which is a subfamily of his family Chetopodia and which includes the genus Lumbricus. The author of a subfamily is the author of the family if later raised to that rank. Rafinesque didn’t use -inae, but -inia is close enough, considering he labelled it as a subfamily. There is no ‘description’ but the subfamily is effectively defined by the genera he lists (an amazing variety of others besides Lumbricus, & including Linnaeus’s imaginary Furia, also the Echiuran Thalassema). Rafinesque is notoriously bad as a taxonomist, but he created many early names which have unfortunate priority over those used more logically by better taxonomists later, regardless of how poorly Rafinesque defined them. Other authors such as Claus 1876 and D’Udekem, 1859 have been claimed as authors of family Lumbricidae, and the work of D'Udekem (1859) in particular is vastly superior in value to that of Rafinesque. However, in his classification of annelids with abranchiate chaetigers he only used the French vernacular, Lombricidées, rather than the Latin form, Lumbricidae, which thus weakens the claim he first authored 'Lumbricidae', although he has a full definition on his page 8. The textbook of Claus (1876: 416) might be the first actual use of a Latinised Lumbricidae with a formal definition (rather than a casual mention). [details]
