Erendira is a genus of corinnid sac spiders first described by A. B. Bonaldo in 2000. [2]
As of April 2019 [update] it contains five species: [1]
Oonopidae, also known as goblin spiders, is a family of spiders consisting of over 1,600 described species in about 113 genera worldwide, with total species diversity estimated at 2000 to 2500 species. The type genus of the family is OonopsKeyserling, 1835.
Corinnidae is a family of araneomorph spiders, sometimes called corinnid sac spiders. The family, like other "clubionoid" families, has a confusing taxonomic history. Once it was a part of the large catch-all taxon Clubionidae, now very much smaller. The original members of the family are apparently similar only in that they have eight eyes arranged in two rows, conical anterior spinnerets that touch and are generally wandering predators that build silken retreats, or sacs, usually on plant terminals, between leaves, under bark or under rocks.
Sassacus is a genus of jumping spiders that was first described by George and Elizabeth Peckham in 1895. It is likely named after Sassacus, a Native American chief of the 16th and 17th century.
Actinopus is a genus of mygalomorph spiders in the family Actinopodidae. It was first described by Josef Anton Maximilian Perty in 1833 from the type species Actinopus tarsalis found in Brazil. The name is derived from Greek actin- "ray, beam" and pous "foot". It is a senior synonym of Aussereria, Closterochilus, Pachyloscelis, and Theragretes.
Myrmecium is a genus of ant-mimicking corinnid sac spiders first described by Pierre André Latreille in 1824. The unrelated jumping spider species Synemosyna formica has been mistaken for a member of this genus twice, once by Eugène Simon in 1897 and once by Cândido Firmino de Mello-Leitão in 1932.
Theridion is a genus of tangle-web spiders with a worldwide distribution. Notable species are the Hawaiian happy face spider (T. grallator), named for the iconic symbol on its abdomen, and T. nigroannulatum, one of few spider species that lives in social groups, attacking prey en masse to overwhelm them as a team.
Corinna is a genus of corinnid sac spiders first described by Carl Ludwig Koch in 1841. They are found in Mexico and south to Brazil, and with selected species found in Africa.
Abapeba is a genus of Central and South American corinnid sac spiders first described by A. B. Bonaldo in 2000.
Simonestus is a genus of corinnid sac spiders first described by A. B. Bonaldo in 2000.
Stethorrhagus is a genus of South American corinnid sac spiders first described by Eugène Simon in 1896.
Xeropigo is a genus of South American and Caribbean corinnid sac spiders first described by O. Pickard-Cambridge in 1882.
Creugas is a genus of corinnid sac spiders first described by Tamerlan Thorell in 1878.
Hapalopus is a genus of tarantulas that was first described by Anton Ausserer in 1875.
Pseudosparianthis is a genus of huntsman spiders that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1887.
Xenoctenidae is a family of araneomorph spiders separated from Miturgidae in 2017.
Alpaida is a genus of South American orb-weaver spiders first described by Octavius Pickard-Cambridge in 1889.
