Koppe is a genus of liocranid sac spiders first described by Christa L. Deeleman-Reinhold in 2001. [2]
As of April 2019 [update] it contains thirteen species throughout Southeast Asia: [1]
The sac spiders of the family Clubionidae have a very confusing taxonomic history. Once, this family was a large catch-all taxon for a disparate collection of spiders, similar only in that they had eight eyes arranged in two rows and conical anterior spinnerets that touched, and were wandering predators that built silken retreats, or sacs, usually on plant terminals, between leaves, under bark, or under rocks. These are now recognized to include several families, some of which are more closely related to the three-clawed spiders, like lynx and wolf spiders, than to Clubionidae and related families.
Liocranidae is a family of araneomorph spiders first described by Eugène Simon in 1897. They are one of several groups called "sac spiders". The holarctic genus Agroeca is the best-known, but it also includes various genera of more obscure spiders that still lack a diagnosis. Two species in the North American genus Neoanagraphis are found in the extremely dry conditions in the Mojave, Sonoran and Chihuahuan deserts. Females live in animal burrows while males wander and are the ones most often caught in pitfall traps.
Stertinius is a genus of Asian jumping spiders that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1890.
Hamadruas is a genus of Asian lynx spiders that was first described by Christa Laetitia Deeleman-Reinhold in 2009.
Matidia is a genus of southeast Asian sac spiders first described by Tamerlan Thorell in 1878.
Nusatidia is a genus of Asian sac spiders first described by Christa L. Deeleman-Reinhold in 2001.
Oedignatha is a genus of Asian spiders first described by Tamerlan Thorell in 1881 as a genus of corrinid sac spiders, and moved to Liocranidae in 2014.
Malamatidia is a genus of Southeast Asian sac spiders first described by Christa L. Deeleman-Reinhold in 2001.
Pristidia is a genus of Asian sac spiders first described by Christa L. Deeleman-Reinhold in 2001.
Pteroneta is a genus of sac spiders first described by Christa L. Deeleman-Reinhold in 2001.
Scopalio is a monotypic genus of Indonesian sac spiders containing the single species, Scopalio verrens. It was first described by Christa L. Deeleman-Reinhold in 2001, and has only been found in Indonesia.
Castoponera is a genus of Southeast Asian corinnid sac spiders first described by Christa L. Deeleman-Reinhold in 2001.
Echinax is a genus of Asian and African corinnid sac spiders first described by Christa L. Deeleman-Reinhold in 2001.
Medmassa is a genus of corinnid sac spiders first described by Eugène Simon in 1887 under the name "Megaera", later renamed because "Megaera" was already in use as a synonym of the reptile genus Trimeresurus.
Corinnomma is a genus of African and Asian corinnid sac spiders first described by Ferdinand Karsch in 1880.
Sesieutes is a genus of Asian liocranid sac spiders first described by Eugène Simon in 1897. It was briefly transferred to the Corinnidae in 2013, but was returned a year later due to its similarity and relation to Phrurolithus.
Hongkongia is a genus of Asian ground spiders that was first described by D. X. Song & Ming-Sheng Zhu in 1998.
Tamin is a genus of Indonesian long-legged sac spiders first described by Christa Deeleman-Reinhold in 2001. As of April 2019 it contains only two species.
Teutamus is a genus of Southeast Asian liocranid sac spiders first described by Tamerlan Thorell in 1890.
