Enna is a genus of South American and Central American araneomorph spiders in the family Trechaleidae, first described by Octavius Pickard-Cambridge in 1897. [2]
Enna contains forty described species: [1]
Anyphaenidae is a family of araneomorph spiders, sometimes called anyphaenid sac spiders. They are distinguished from the sac spiders of the family Clubionidae and other spiders by having the abdominal spiracle placed one third to one half of the way anterior to the spinnerets toward the epigastric furrow on the underside of the abdomen. In most spiders the spiracle is just anterior to the spinnerets. Like clubionids, anyphaenids have eight eyes arranged in two rows, conical anterior spinnerets and are wandering predators that build silken retreats, or sacs, usually on plant terminals, between leaves, under bark or under rocks. There are more than 500 species in over 50 genera worldwide.
Tenedos is a spider genus of the family Zodariidae. It has around 45 species from Central and South America.
Lyssomanes is a spider genus of the family Salticidae, ranging from South and Central America, up to the southern United States.
Trechaleidae is a family of araneomorph spiders first described by Eugène Simon in 1890, and includes about 140 described species in 16 genera. They all live in Central and South America except for Shinobius orientalis, which is endemic to Japan.
Micrathena, known as spiny orbweavers, is a genus of orb-weaver spiders first described by Carl Jakob Sundevall in 1833. Micrathena contains more than a hundred species, most of them Neotropical woodland-dwelling species. The name is derived from the Greek "micro", meaning "small", and the goddess Athena.
Trechalea is a genus of spider in the family Trechaleidae, found in the United States to Peru and Brazil.
Mangora is a genus of orb-weaver spiders first described by O. Pickard-Cambridge in 1889.
Verrucosa is a genus of orb-weaver spiders first described by Henry McCook in 1888. It contains almost fifty described species, most of which live in South America. The only species in the United States is the arrowhead spider.
Chrysometa is a genus of long-jawed orb-weavers that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1894. It is a senior synonym of Capichameta.
Metazygia is a genus of orb-weaver spiders first described by F. O. Pickard-Cambridge in 1904. They physically resemble members of Nuctenea, but they do not have fine setae on the carapace.
Ocrepeira is a genus of orb-weaver spiders first described by George Marx in 1883.
Wagneriana is a genus of orb-weaver spiders first described by F. O. Pickard-Cambridge in 1904.
Thaumasia is a genus of nursery web spiders that was first described by Josef Anton Maximilian Perty in 1833.
Epicadus is a genus of crab spiders that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1895. It is considered a senior synonym of Tobias.
