Eremorhax is a genus of eremobatid camel spiders, first described by Carl Friedrich Roewer in 1934. [1]
As of February 2023 [update] , the World Solifugae Catalog accepts the following ten species: [2]
Eremobates is a genus of arachnids of the order Solifugae. About 2 inches long, these fast-moving arachnids have the largest jaw size to body ratio of any animal. They are not venomous, but have a remarkably powerful bite. Often hunting at night, they have poor eyesight and navigate mostly by use of a pair of pedipalps.
Ammotrechidae is a family of solifuges distributed in the Americas and the Caribbean Islands. It includes 26 described genera and 95 species. Members of this family can be distinguished from members of other families by the absence of claws on tarsi of leg I, tarsal segmentation 1-2-2-(2-4), pedipalps with pairs of lateroventral spines, and by males having an immovable flagellum on the mesal face of each chelicerum. The propeltidium of the Ammotrechidae is recurved.
Eremochelis is a genus of Eremobatid camel spiders, first described by Carl Friedrich Roewer in 1934.
