Here, superconductivity in the two-dimensional AM_mBi₃Q_5+m family of semimetals is reported. The AMBi₃Te₆ (m=1) and AM₂Bi₃Te₇ (m=2) members of the homologous series with A=Rb, Cs and M=Pb, Sn undergo a bulk superconducting transition ranging from 2.7 to 1.4 K depending on the composition. The estimated superconducting volume fraction is about 90 %. Superconducting phase diagrams as a function of chemical pressure are constructed for the solid solution products of each member of the homologous series, AMBi_3-xSb_xTe_6-ySe_y and AM₂Bi_3-xSb_xTe_7-ySe_y (0≤x≤3 or 0≤y≤2). The structural flexibility of the ternary AM_mM'₃Te_5+m semiconducting homology to form isostructural analogues with a variety of metals, M=Pb, Sn; M'=Bi, Sb, gives access to a large number of electronic configurations and superconductivity due to chemical pressure effects.
