Pteroneta is a genus of sac spiders first described by Christa L. Deeleman-Reinhold in 2001. [2]
As of April 2019 [update] it contains eight species: [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.
Euryattus is a genus of spiders in the family Salticidae.
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.
Utivarachna is a genus of Asian araneomorph spiders in the family Trachelidae first described by Kyukichi Kishida in 1940. It was largely ignored until Christa L. Deeleman-Reinhold revised the sac and ground spiders in 2001, transferring some species from Trachelas and adding several new ones. The genus was further expanded in 2014 and 2015.
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.
Koppe is a genus of liocranid sac spiders first described by Christa L. Deeleman-Reinhold in 2001.
Psiloderces is a genus of six eyed spiders in the family Psilodercidae, first described by Eugène Simon in 1892
Speocera is a genus of six eyed spiders in the family Ochyroceratidae.
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.
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.
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.
