Attelabus glaber (DeGeer, 1774) currently the type species of Hesperandra (Zikandra) Santos-Silva, 2003 is considered the type species of Parandra Latreille, 1802 (here validated). Hesperandra Arigony, 1977 and Hesperandra (Zikandra) become junior synonyms of Parandra Latreille, 1802, and Gnathophorus Kirby, 1837 is also confirmed as a synonym of this genus. Birandra Santos-Silva, 2002 is used to replace Parandra sensu lato. Parandra laevis Latreille, 1804 is placed as a synonym of Attelabus glaber DeGeer, 1774. New names are chosen to replace Parandra laevis Schönherr, 1817 (= sensu auctorum) (redescribed here) and the subgenus Parandra sensu Santos-Silva, 2002, respectively: Birandra (Yvesandra) latreillei and Birandra (Yvesandra). Protospondylis Linsley, 1942 is revalidated, excluded from Parandrinae, and placed incertae sedis in the Cerambycidae. An updated list of the reallocated species is given
