Singaporemma is a genus of Asian araneomorph spiders in the family Tetrablemmidae that was first described by W. A. Shear in 1978. [2]
As of September 2019 [update] it contains eight species, found in Asia: [1]
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.
Stenochilidae is a family of southeast Asian araneomorph spiders that produce ecribellate silk. First described by Tamerlan Thorell in 1873, it now contains twelve described species in two genera.
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.
Tetrablemma is a widespread genus of armored spiders first described by Octavius Pickard-Cambridge in 1873. It only has four eyes; an unusual trait for spiders, found only here and in some species of Caponiidae, though the two are not closely related. The eyes are large, but unequal in size, closely grouped around the center of the prosoma that rises in a somewhat of a cone shape from the abdomen. They have four closely positioned spinnerets enclosed in a corneous casing.
Brignoliella is a genus of araneomorph spiders in the family Tetrablemmidae that was first described by W. A. Shear in 1978.
Gunasekara is a monotypic genus of Sri Lankan araneomorph spiders in the family Tetrablemmidae containing the single species, Gunasekara ramboda. It was first described by Pekka T. Lehtinen in 1981, and is found in Sri Lanka.
Pahanga is a genus of Asian araneomorph spiders in the family Tetrablemmidae that was first described by W. A. Shear in 1979.
Shearella is a genus of Asian araneomorph spiders in the family Tetrablemmidae that was first described by Pekka T. Lehtinen in 1981.
Pseudanapis is a genus of araneomorph spiders in the family Anapidae, first described by Eugène Simon in 1905. It is a senior synonym of "Gossiblemma" and "Amrishoonops".
Ablemma is a genus of araneomorph spiders in the family Tetrablemmidae that was first described by Carl Friedrich Roewer in 1963.
Hexablemma is a monotypic genus of araneomorph spiders in the family Tetrablemmidae containing the single species, Hexablemma cataphractum. It was first described by Lucien Berland in 1920 from a female found in Kenya. It was separated from Tetrablemma in 1978 for this single species, because it doesn't belong there, but doesn't seem to belong anywhere else either.
Indicoblemma is a genus of Asian araneomorph spiders in the family Tetrablemmidae that was first described by J. D. Bourne in 1980. It is a senior synonym of Chavia.
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.
Lehtinenia is a genus of Asian araneomorph spiders in the family Tetrablemmidae that was first described by Y. F. Tong & S. Q. Li in 2008. As of September 2019 it contains three species, found in Asia: L. arcus, L. bicornis, and L. bisulcus. It is named in honor of Pekka T. Lehtinen.
Mariblemma is a monotypic genus of araneomorph spiders in the family Tetrablemmidae found on the Seychelles. It contains the single species, Mariblemma pandani, first described by Paolo Brignoli in 1978 and placed into Paculla. Pekka T. Lehtinen transferred it to Mariblemma in 1981, disagreeing with Brignoli's original placement.
Micromatta is a monotypic genus of Central American araneomorph spiders in the family Tetrablemmidae found in Belize. It contains the single species, Micromatta atoma, first described by W. A. Shear in 1978. Pekka T. Lehtinen transferred it to Micromatta in 1981 because the shapes of the male embolus and conductor are quite different than those of Matta and Caraimatta. Additionally, the plesiomorphic structure of pedipalp segments prove that the three genera aren't a paraphyletic group.
Paculla is a genus of araneomorph spiders in the family Pacullidae that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1887. Originally placed with the Tetrablemmidae, it was transferred to the Pacullidae after a 2017 genetic study.
Sulaimania is a genus of Southeast Asian araneomorph spiders in the family Tetrablemmidae that was first described by Pekka T. Lehtinen in 1981. As of September 2019 it contains two species, found in Malaysia and Singapore: S. brevis and S. vigelandi.
