Hyidae is a family of pseudoscorpions. It was described in 1930 by American arachnologist Joseph Conrad Chamberlin. [1] [2] Habitats include plant litter and caves. They are found in South and Southeast Asia, Madagascar, and Australia. [3]
As of October 2023 [update] , the World Pseudoscorpiones Catalog accepted the following two genera: [1]
Pseudoscorpions, also known as false scorpions or book scorpions, are small, scorpion-like arachnids belonging to the order Pseudoscorpiones, also known as Pseudoscorpionida or Chelonethida.
Menthidae is a family of pseudoscorpions, first described by Joseph Conrad Chamberlin in 1930.
Bochicidae is a family of pseudoscorpions distributed throughout the Americas from Texas and Mexico to South America, from the Antilles to Venezuela, Guyana and Brazil, as well as in Europe. Members of the family can be diagnosed mainly by features of the claws, notably the presence of exactly 12 trichobothria on each claw and a long, as opposed to short, venom duct. Some species live in caves while some are surface-dwelling.
Geogarypidae is a family of pseudoscorpions, which was described in 1930 by American arachnologist Joseph Conrad Chamberlin.
Garypinidae is a family of pseudoscorpions, first described by Eugen von Daday in 1889.
Neobisiidae is a family of pseudoscorpions distributed throughout Africa, the Americas and Eurasia and consist of 748 species in 34 genera. Some species live in caves while some are surface-dwelling.
Cryptocheiridium is a genus of pseudoscorpions in the Cheiridiidae family. It was described in 1931 by American arachnologist Joseph Conrad Chamberlin.
Synsphyronus is a genus of pseudoscorpions in the Garypidae family. It was described in 1930 by American arachnologist Joseph Conrad Chamberlin. Its distribution is mainly in Australia, but also extends to New Zealand and New Caledonia.
Garypidae is a family of pseudoscorpions, first described by Eugène Simon in 1879.
Garypus is a genus of pseudoscorpions in the family Garypidae. It was described by German arachnologist Ludwig Carl Christian Koch in 1873. The species are found mainly in tropical and subtropical areas, where they occupy supralittoral and littoral zones in seashore habitats.
Austrochthonius is a genus of pseudoscorpions in the family Chthoniidae. It was described in 1929 by American arachnologist Joseph Conrad Chamberlin.
Sathrochthonius is a genus of pseudoscorpions in the family Chthoniidae. It was described in 1962 by American arachnologist Joseph Conrad Chamberlin.
Pseudotyrannochthonius is a genus of pseudoscorpions in the family Pseudotyrannochthoniidae. It was described in 1930 by Austrian arachnologist Max Beier.
Indohya is a genus of pseudoscorpions in the Hyidae family. It was described in 1974 by Austrian arachnologist Max Beier.
Geogarypus is a genus of pseudoscorpions in the Geogarypidae family. It was described in 1930 by American arachnologist Joseph Conrad Chamberlin. The genus has a cosmopolitan distribution.
Anagarypus is a genus of pseudoscorpions in the Garypidae family. It was described in 1930 by American arachnologist Joseph Conrad Chamberlin. Species in the genus are found on islands along the coast of northern Australia and in the Indian Ocean.
Pseudochiridiidae is a family of pseudoscorpions. It was described in 1923 by American arachnologist Joseph Conrad Chamberlin. Pseudochiridiids are relatively small pseudoscorpions. They are found in plant litter or beneath tree bark. The family was sometimes treated as a subfamily of the Cheiridiidae, but has since been reinstated.
Solinus is a genus of pseudoscorpions in the Garypinidae family. It was described in 1930 by American arachnologist Joseph Conrad Chamberlin.
Euryolpium is a genus of pseudoscorpions in the Olpiidae family. It was described in 1938 by Russian zoologist Vladimir Redikorzev.
Xenolpium is a genus of pseudoscorpions in the Olpiidae family, with species found on various Indian Ocean islands and in Australasia. It was described in 1930 by American arachnologist Joseph Conrad Chamberlin.
