The family Cyrtaucheniidae, known as wafer-lid trapdoor spiders, are a widespread family of Mygalomorphae spiders.
Idiopidae, also known as armored trapdoor spiders, is a family of mygalomorph spiders first described by Eugène Simon in 1889. They have a large body similar to tarantulas.
Atypus, also called purseweb spiders, is a genus of atypical tarantulas first described by Pierre André Latreille in 1804. It occurs in Eurasia, with one species reaching into North Africa, and one species in the USA. Only three of the described species occur in Europe: A. piceus, A. affinis, and A. muralis.
Pacullidae is a family of araneomorph spiders first described by Eugène Simon in 1894. It was merged into Tetrablemmidae in 1958, then raised back to family status after a large phylogenetic study in 2017.
Sason is a genus of bark-dwelling brushed trapdoor spiders first described by Eugène Simon in 1887. It is distributed from the Seychelles through India to northern Australia. The closest related genus seems to be the monotypic Paracenobiopelma.
Sason sundaicum is a species of barychelid trapdoor spiders that is found on trees near the sea, usually closer than 100 metres, although distances of up to five kilometres have been observed.
Cyclocosmia is a genus of mygalomorph trapdoor spiders in the family Halonoproctidae, first described by Anton Ausserer in 1871. Originally placed with the Ctenizidae, when the family split in 2018, this genus was placed with the Halonoproctidae as the type genus. The name is derived from the Greek "kyklos" (κυκλος), meaning "circle", and "kosmeo" (κοσμεω), meaning "to adorn".
Liphistius is a genus of basal trapdoor spiders in the family Liphistiidae. They are found in Japan, China, and Southeast Asia.
Prothemenops is a genus of Southeast Asian armored trapdoor spiders that was first described by Peter J. Schwendinger in 1991.
Leptothele is a genus of Southeast Asian spiders in the family Euagridae first described by Robert Raven & Peter J. Schwendinger in 1995, and is native to the Malay Peninsula. It contains the two species, Leptothele bencha and L. chang.
Phyxioschema is a genus of Asian spiders in the family Euagridae. It was first described by Eugène Simon in 1889.
Lamania is a genus of Southeast Asian araneomorph spiders in the family Pacullidae that was first described by Pekka T. Lehtinen in 1981. Originally placed with the armored spiders, it was moved to the Pacullidae in 2017.
Perania is a genus of Asian araneomorph spiders in the family Pacullidae that was first described by Tamerlan Thorell in 1890. It is considered a senior synonym of Mirania.
Leptothele bencha is a species of spiders in the family Euagridae first described by Robert Raven & Peter J. Schwendinger in 1995, and is native to the Malay Peninsula.
Angka hexops is a species of Southeast Asian spiders in the family Microstigmatidae. It is the only species in the monotypic genus Angka. It was first described by Robert Raven & Peter J. Schwendinger in 1995, and has only been found in Thailand.
Euagridae is a family of mygalomorph spiders. The group was first described as a tribe in 1979 by Robert Raven, who in 1985 elevated it to a subfamily. In 2020, Optova et al. elevated it further to a family.
Malayathele is a genus of southeast Asian mygalomorph spiders in the family Euagridae. It was first described by Peter J. Schwendinger, C. Lehmann-Graber and K. Hongpadharakiree in 2020, and it has only been found in Malaysia.
