Guizygiella is a genus of Asian long-jawed orb-weavers that was first described by M. S. Zhu, J. P. Kim & D. X. Song in 1997. [2]
As of October 2019 [update] it contains six species, found in Asia: [1]
In synonymy:
The genus Argiope includes rather large spiders that often have a strikingly coloured abdomen. These spiders are distributed throughout the world. Most countries in tropical or temperate climates host one or more species that are similar in appearance. The etymology of Argiope is from a Latin word argentum meaning silver. The carapace of Argiope species is typically covered in silvery hairs, and when crawling in the sun, they reflect it in a way that gives them a metallic, white appearance.
Long-jawed orb weavers or long jawed spiders (Tetragnathidae) are a family of araneomorph spiders first described by Anton Menge in 1866. They have elongated bodies, legs, and chelicerae, and build small orb webs with an open hub with few, wide-set radii and spirals with no signal line or retreat. Some species are often found in long vegetation near water.
Pholcus is a genus of spiders of long-bodied cellar spider and allies in the family Pholcidae, with 375 described species as of January 2023.
Clubiona is a genus of sac spiders that was first described by Pierre André Latreille in 1804.
Triplophysa is a genus of fish in the family Nemacheilidae found mainly in and around the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in China, as well as inland waters of the larger part of central Asia. Currently, the genus is a mixed assemblage of species. Some lineages have been identified and treated as subgenera, but as Wikipedia follows Fishbase for fish species all but Hedinichthys have been treated as subgenera in Wikipedia, although Kottelat in his revision of the loaches did recognise them as valid. FishBase, however, includes these in Triplophysa without specifying subgenera and treats the names given by Kottelat as synonyms.
Parasteatoda is a genus of comb-footed spiders that was first described by Allan Frost Archer in 1946. The name is a combination of the Ancient Greek "para-" (παρά), meaning "near" or "next to", and the theridiid genus Steatoda. The Japanese name for this genus is O-himegumo zoku.
Sinopoda is a genus of Asian huntsman spiders that was first described by Peter Jäger in 1999.
Allagelena is a genus of Asian funnel weavers first described by Z. S. Zhang, Ming-Sheng Zhu & D. X. Song in 2006.
Tylorida is a genus of long-jawed orb-weavers that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1894.
Epidius is a genus of crab spiders that was first described by Tamerlan Thorell in 1877. It is a senior synonym of Pothaeus.
Nanningia is a monotypic genus of Chinese long-jawed orb-weavers containing the single species, Nanningia zhangi. It was first described by M. S. Zhu, J. P. Kim & D. X. Song in 1997, and has only been found in China.
Orsinome is a genus of long-jawed orb-weavers that was first described by Tamerlan Thorell in 1890. It is included in the Nanometa clade, defined by nine morphological synapomorphies, along with Eryciniolia and Nanometa.
Wolongia is a genus of Asian long-jawed orb-weavers that was first described by M. S. Zhu, J. P. Kim & D. X. Song in 1997.
Eriovixia is a genus of orb-weaver spiders first described by Allan Frost Archer in 1951.
Hitobia is a genus of Asian ground spiders that was first described by T. Kamura in 1992.
Phycosoma is a genus of comb-footed spiders that was first described by Octavius Pickard-Cambridge in 1880.
Takayus is a genus of Asian comb-footed spiders that was first described by H. Yoshida in 2001.
Draconarius is a genus of Asian funnel weavers first described by S. V. Ovtchinnikov in 1999.
