Jalapyphantes is a genus of dwarf spiders that was first described by Carl Eduard Adolph Gerstaecker & L. I. Davis in 1946. [2]
The genus includes the following species, found in Ecuador and Mexico: [1]
The recluse spiders, also known as brown spiders, fiddle-backs, violin spiders, and reapers, is a genus of spiders that was first described by R. T. Lowe in 1832. They are venomous spiders known for their bite, which sometimes produces a characteristic set of symptoms known as loxoscelism.
The blacktailed red sheetweaver, also known as red grass spider, is a species of dwarf spider. It is the only species in the monotypic genus Florinda. It was first described by Octavius Pickard-Cambridge in 1896, and has only been found in Mexico, the West Indies, and the United States. It is common in the southeastern United States, inhabiting grasslands, lawns, and agricultural fields.
Pimoidae is a small family of araneomorph spiders first described by J. Wunderlich in 1986. As re-circumscribed in 2021, it is monophyletic, and contained 85 species in two genera. It is closely related to the Linyphiidae, and is sometimes treated as synonymous with that family.
Pimoa is a genus of spiders in the family Pimoidae. Its sister genus is Nanoa.
Austrochilidae is a small spider family with nine species in two genera. Austrochilus and Thaida are endemic to the Andean forest of central and southern Chile and adjacent Argentina.
Psilochorus is a genus of spiders in the family Pholcidae.
Frontinella is a genus of dwarf spiders that was first described by Frederick Octavius Pickard-Cambridge in 1902.
Linyphia is a genus of dwarf spiders that was first described by Pierre André Latreille in 1804. The name is Greek, and means "thread-weaver" or "linen maker".
Anapis is a genus of araneomorph spiders in the family Anapidae, which consists of small orb weaving spiders all from the Neotropical realm. The genus includes close to thirty species and was first described by Eugène Simon in 1895.
Creugas is a genus of corinnid sac spiders first described by Tamerlan Thorell in 1878.
Ochyrocera is a genus of midget ground weavers that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1892.
Putaoa is a genus of East Asian araneomorph spiders in the family Linyphiidae, and was first described by G. Hormiga & L. Tu in 2008. As of June 2019 it contains only three species, found only in Taiwan and China: P. huaping, P. megacantha, and P. seediq.
Diplothyron is a genus of South American dwarf spiders. It was first described by Alfred Frank Millidge in 1991.
Eulaira is a genus of North American dwarf spiders that was first described by Ralph Vary Chamberlin & Vaine Wilton Ivie in 1933.
Idionella is a genus of North American dwarf spiders that was first described by Nathan Banks in 1893.
Masoncus is a genus of North American dwarf spiders that was first described by Ralph Vary Chamberlin in 1949.
Pecado is a monotypic genus of dwarf spiders containing the single species, Pecado impudicus. It was first described by G. Hormiga & N. Scharff in 2005, and has only been found in Spain, Morocco, and Algeria.
Selenyphantes is a genus of sheet weavers. It was first described by Willis J. Gertsch & L. I. Davis in 1946.
Hentziectypus is a genus of comb-footed spiders that was first described by Allan Frost Archer in 1946. Originally placed with Theridion, it was moved to Achaearanea in 1955, and to its own genus in 2008. These spiders most resemble members of Cryptachaea, but are distinguished by a median apophysis that is broadly attached to the tegulum. Spiders of Parasteatoda have a median apophysis attached to the embolus, while those of Achaearanea have a hooked paracymbium on the pedipalps of males.
Xenoctenidae is a family of araneomorph spiders separated from Miturgidae in 2017.
