Rhagodes is a genus of rhagodid camel spiders, first described by Reginald Innes Pocock in 1897. [1]
As of April 2023 [update] , the World Solifugae Catalog accepts the following twenty-seven species: [2]
Pellenes is a genus of jumping spiders that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1876. It is considered a senior synonym of Hyllothyene.
Hogna is a genus of wolf spiders with more than 200 described species. It is found on all continents except Antarctica.
Galeodes is a genus of solifuges or sun spiders. The nearly 200 species in this genus are found in northern Africa, southeastern Europe and Asia. Like other solifuges, they are mainly nocturnal and found in arid habitats. They often have long hairy appendages and are not as stout bodied or dark and contrastingly coloured as some other solifuges. Some Galeodes species are able to produce sounds by stridulation. These are usually raspy or hiss-like and may be imitations of the sounds of vipers, to serve a defensive function. As in other solifuges, mating involves the male depositing a spermatogonia that is manipulated into the female genital opening using their chelicera. The male strokes the female using the palps allowing her to be approached. Females will often feed on males before or after mating. The female then deposits the eggs in a burrow in soil and in some species guards them.
Daesiidae is a family of solifugids, which are widespread in Africa and the Middle East. Members of the family are also present in India, Italy, South America, the Balkans, and the single species Gluvia dorsalis in the Iberian Peninsula. A single fossil species is known from Eocene Baltic amber.
Galeodidae is a family of solifuges, first described by Carl Jakob Sundevall in 1833.
Rhagodidae is a family of solifuges, first described by Reginald Innes Pocock in 1897.
Zeria is a genus of solpugid camel spiders, first described by Eugène Simon in 1879.
Biton is a genus of daesiid camel spiders, first described by Ferdinand Karsch in 1880.
Blossia is a genus of daesiid camel spiders, first described by Eugène Simon in 1880.
Gluviopsis is a genus of daesiid camel spiders, first described by Karl Kraepelin in 1899.
Karschia is a genus of karschiid camel spiders, first described by Alfred Walter in 1889.
Galeodopsis is a genus of Galeodid camel spiders, first described by Aleksei Birula in 1903.
Paragaleodes is a genus of Galeodid camel spiders, first described by Karl Kraepelin in 1899.
Eusimonia is a genus of karschiid camel spiders, first described by Karl Kraepelin in 1899.
Rhagodopa is a genus of rhagodid camel spiders, first described by Carl Friedrich Roewer in 1933.

Zeriassa is a genus of solpugid camel spiders, first described by Reginald Innes Pocock in 1897.
Solpugyla is a genus of solpugid camel spiders, first described by Carl Friedrich Roewer in 1933.
