Leprolochus is a genus of spiders in the family Zodariidae. It was first described in 1893 by Simon. As of 2017 [update] , it contains 7 South American species. [1]
Leprolochus comprises the following species: [1]
The Thomisidae are a family of spiders, including about 175 genera and over 2,100 species. The common name crab spider is often linked to species in this family, but is also applied loosely to many other families of spiders. Many members of this family are also known as flower spiders or flower crab spiders.
Ground spiders comprise Gnaphosidae, the seventh largest spider family with nearly 2,000 described species in over 100 genera distributed worldwide. There are 105 species known to central Europe, and common genera include Gnaphosa, Drassodes, Micaria, Cesonia, Zelotes and many others. They are closely related to Clubionidae. At present, no ground spiders are known to be seriously venomous to humans.
Philodromidae, also known as philodromid crab spiders and running crab spiders, is a family of araneomorph spiders first described by Tord Tamerlan Teodor Thorell in 1870. It contains over 600 species in thirty genera. Most are dull colored- brown, gray, yellowish or mottled with a leaf-like cardiac mark on the anterior dorsal abdomen, and seldom reach above 10 millimetres (0.39 in) long. None of the species build webs, but they do use silk for draglines and egg sacs.
Ant spiders are members of the family Zodariidae. They are small to medium-sized eight-eyed spiders found in all tropical and subtropical regions of South America, Africa, Madagascar, Australia-New Guinea, New Zealand, Arabia and the Indian subcontinent. Most species are daytime hunters and live together with ants, mimicking their behavior and sometimes even their chemical traits. Although little is known about most zodariids, members of the genus Zodarion apparently feed only on ants; a number of other genera in the family are apparently also ant specialists.
Noegus is a genus of jumping spiders that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1900.
Uloborus is a spider genus in the family Uloboridae with 72 described species. Most species occur in the tropics and subtropics, with only few species in northern America and Europe.
Dolichognatha is a genus of tropical and subtropical long-jawed orb-weavers that was first described by Octavius Pickard-Cambridge in 1869. Originally placed with the Archaeidae, it was transferred to the Araneidae in 1967, and to the Tetragnathidae in 1981.
Litoporus is a genus of cellar spiders that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1893.
Sidymella is a genus of spider in the family Thomisidae, found in South America, Australia and New Zealand. It was originally named Sidyma, but this was later found to have been used already for a genus of moths.
Berlandiella is a genus of South American running crab spiders that was first described by Cândido Firmino de Mello-Leitão in 1929.
Coryssocnemis is a genus of cellar spiders that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1893.
Ceraarachne is a genus of South American crab spiders that was first described by Eugen von Keyserling in 1880.
Epicadus is a genus of crab spiders that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1895. It is considered a senior synonym of Tobias.
Erissus is a genus of South American crab spiders that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1895.
Onocolus is a genus of South American crab spiders first described by Eugène Simon in 1895. It is considered a senior synonym of Paronocolus.
Titidius is a genus of spiders in the family Thomisidae. It was first described in 1895 by Eugène Simon. As of 2017, it contains 20 species.
Cybaeodamus is a genus of spiders in the family Zodariidae. It was first described in 1938 by Mello-Leitão. As of 2017, it contains 8 species, all from South America.
Xenoctenidae is a family of araneomorph spiders separated from Miturgidae in 2017.
Retiro is a genus of South American and Central American tangled nest spiders first described by Cândido Firmino de Mello-Leitão in 1915.
