Neottiura is a genus of comb-footed spiders that was first described by Anton Menge in 1868. [2]
As of May 2020 [update] it contains six species and one subspecies, found in Asia, Europe, North America, and Algeria: [1]
In synonymy:
Linyphiidae, spiders commonly known as sheet weavers, or money spiders is a family of very small spiders comprising 4706 described species in 620 genera worldwide. This makes Linyphiidae the second largest family of spiders after the Salticidae. The family is poorly understood due to their small body size and wide distribution; new genera and species are still being discovered throughout the world. The newest such genus is Himalafurca from Nepal, formally described in April 2021 by Tanasevitch. Since it is so difficult to identify such tiny spiders, there are regular changes in taxonomy as species are combined or divided.
Euophrys is a genus of jumping spiders that was first described by Carl Ludwig Koch in 1834. The small black E. omnisuperstes lives on Mount Everest at elevations up to 6,700 meters, possibly making it the most elevated animal in the world.
Salticus is a genus of the family Salticidae. Salticus is the type genus for the family Salticidae.
Synageles is a genus of jumping spiders that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1876.
Ozyptila is a genus of crab spiders that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1864. It has been misspelled as "Oxyptila" in multiple accounts.
Lycosa is a genus of wolf spiders distributed throughout most of the world. Sometimes called the "true tarantula", though not closely related to the spiders most commonly called tarantulas today, Lycosa spp. can be distinguished from common wolf spiders by their relatively large size. This genus includes the European Lycosa tarantula, which was once associated with tarantism, a dubious affliction whose symptoms included shaking, cold sweats, and a high fever, asserted to be curable only by the traditional tarantella dance. No scientific substantiation of that myth is known; the venom of Lycosa spiders is generally not harmful.
Enoplognatha is a genus of comb-footed spiders that was first described by P. Pavesi in 1880. They have both a large colulus and a subspherical abdomen. Males usually have enlarged chelicerae. It is considered a senior synonym of Symopagia.
Agroeca is a genus of liocranid sac spiders that was first described by Niklas Westring in 1861.
Dictyna is a genus of cribellate araneomorph spiders in the family Dictynidae, and was first described by Carl Jakob Sundevall in 1833.
Crustulina is a genus of comb-footed spiders that was first described by Anton Menge in 1868.
Euryopis is a genus of comb-footed spiders that was first described by Anton Menge in 1868.
Micaria is a genus of ground spiders that was first described by Niklas Westring in 1851. They are 1.3 to 6.5 millimetres long.
Haplodrassus is a genus of ground spiders that was first described by R. V. Chamberlin in 1922. They range from 3 to 10 millimetres. H. signifer is the most widespread species, found across North America except for Alaska and northern Canada.
Centromerus is a genus of dwarf spiders that was first described by David B. Hirst in 1886.
Gonatium is a genus of dwarf spiders that was first described by Anton Menge in 1868.
Neottiura bimaculata is a species of cobweb spider in the family Theridiidae. It is found in North America, Europe, Turkey, Caucasus, Russia (Siberia), Central Asia, China, and Japan.
