Obrimona is a monotypic genus of Asian dwarf spiders containing the single species, Obrimona tennenti. It was first described by Embrik Strand in 1934, [2] and has only been found in Sri Lanka. [1]
Uloboridae is a family of non-venomous spiders, known as cribellate orb weavers or hackled orb weavers. Their lack of venom glands is a secondarily evolved trait. Instead, they wrap their prey thoroughly in silk, cover it in regurgitated digestive enzymes, and then ingest the liquified body.
Embrik Strand was an entomologist and arachnologist who classified many insect and spider species including the greenbottle blue tarantula.
Pellolessertia is a monotypic genus of African jumping spiders containing the single species, Pellolessertia castanea. It was first described in 1927, and is only found in Africa. Dippenaar-Schoeman & Jocqué gave the distribution range as Zad're to Ethiopia.
Thorelliola is a genus of jumping spiders that was first described by Embrik Strand in 1942. It is named after arachnologist Tamerlan Thorell.
Tetrablemmidae, sometimes called armored spiders, is a family of tropical araneomorph spiders first described by Octavius Pickard-Cambridge in 1873. It contains 126 described species in 29 genera from southeast Asia, with a few that occur in Africa and Central and South America. Pacullidae was incorporated into this family in 1981, but was later restored as a separate family in a 2016 phylogenetic study.
Semljicola is a genus of sheet weavers that was first described by Embrik Strand in 1906.
Bassaniana, commonly called bark crab spiders, is a widespread genus of crab spiders that was first described by Embrik Strand in 1928.
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.
Gephyrota is a genus of running crab spiders that was first described by Embrik Strand in 1932.
Orthobula is a genus of araneomorph spiders first described by Eugène Simon in 1897 as a member of Liocranidae. It was transferred to Corinnidae in 2002, to Phrurolithidae in 2014, and to Trachelidae in 2017.
Schenkeliella is a monotypic genus of Sri Lankan long-jawed orb-weavers containing the single species, Schenkeliella spinosa. The species was first described by Octavius Pickard-Cambridge in 1871 under the name Oeta spinosa, but it was renamed to "Schenkeliella" by Embrik Strand in 1934 because the name was already in use for a genus of ermine moths. Originally placed with the Nesticidae, it transferred to the Tetragnathidae in 1980.
Janula is a genus of comb-footed spiders that was first described by Embrik Strand in 1932. It is a senior synonym of Monetoculus.
Mandaneta is a monotypic genus of African corinnid sac spiders containing the single species, Mandaneta sudana. It was first described by Embrik Strand in 1932, and has only been found in Central Africa.
Sagellula is a genus of east Asian huntsman spiders that was first described by Embrik Strand in 1942. It was originally described under the name "Sagella", but this was changed to Sagellula when a senior homonym was discovered. As of September 2019 it contains two species, found in China and Japan: S. octomunita and S. xizangensis.
Strandiellum is a monotypic genus of Papuan huntsman spiders containing the single species, Strandiellum wilhelmshafeni. It was first described by G. Kolosváry in 1934, and is found in Papua New Guinea.
Gephyrellula is a monotypic genus of Brazilian running crab spiders containing the single species, Gephyrellula violacea. It was first described by Embrik Strand in 1932, and is only found in Brazil.
Hirriusa is a genus of African running crab spiders that was first described by Embrik Strand in 1932. As of June 2019 it contains only three species, found only in South Africa and Namibia: H. arenacea, H. bidentata, and H. variegata.
Caripetella is a monotypic genus of East African nursery web spiders containing the single species, Caripetella madagascariensis. It was first described by Embrik Strand in 1928, and is only found on Comoros and on Madagascar.
Ummeliata is a genus of Asian sheet weavers that was first described by Embrik Strand in 1942.
Dietopsa is a genus of Asian crab spiders that was first described by Embrik Strand in 1932. As of August 2020 it contains two species, found in India: D. castaneifrons and D. parnassia.
