Mallecomigas is a genus of spiders in the family Migidae. It was first described in 1987 by Goloboff & Platnick. As of 2017, it contains only one Chilean species, Mallecomigas schlingeri.

Goloboffia vellardi is a species of spider in the family Migidae, found in Chile. Initially described by Zapfe in 1961 in the genus Migas, Griswold and Ledford moved it to their new genus Goloboffia in 2001, where it was initially the only species. In 2019, more species were described.
Bertmainius monachus is a spider in the family Migidae. It was first described in 2015 by Mark Harvey, Barbara York Main, Michael Rix and Steven Cooper, and is endemic to south-western Australia.
