Swolnpes darwini is a species of mygalomorph spider in the Anamidae family. It is endemic to Australia. It was described in 2009 by Australian arachnologists Barbara York Main and Volker Framenau. [1] [2]
The species occurs in Western Australia. The type locality is the Tropicana mining lease, in the Great Victoria Desert, 450 km north-east of Kalgoorlie. [2]
Missulena is a genus of mygalomorph spiders in the family Actinopodidae. It was first described by Charles Walckenaer in 1805, and is a senior synonym of Eriodon. M. tussulena is found in Chile, but the rest are indigenous to Australia. They are sometimes referred to as "mouse spiders" from the now-disproven belief that they dig deep burrows similar to those of mice. Scotophaeus blackwalli is also called a "mouse spider", but it is smaller and not closely related.
Missulena occatoria, known as the red-headed mouse spider, is a species of spider found in Australia, from open forest to desert shrubland. It is the most widely distributed Missulena species, occurring throughout mainland Australia. This is possible because the spiderlings disperse via wind (ballooning). Normally this only occurs with araneomorph spiders, mygalomorph spiders normally disperse by walking. Missulena venom may be very toxic, but few cases of serious envenomation have been recorded. Most recorded bites only caused minor effects, with Australian funnel-web spider antivenom having proved effective as a treatment.
Aname is a genus of mygalomorph spiders. It is endemic to Australia. The spiders, as well as some in closely related genera, are also known as wishbone spiders.
Cyrtophorinae is a subfamily of spiders in the orb-weaver spider family. Unlike other orb-weavers, spiders belonging to Cyrtophorinae build horizontal, finely meshed platforms within a tangle of irregular webs. The usually dome-shaped platform is a non-sticky orb web.
Swolnpes is a genus of spiders in the family Anamidae. It was first described in 2009 by Barbara York Main and Volker Framenau. It is endemic to Australia.
Cyrtobill is a genus of Australian orb-weaver spiders containing the single species, Cyrtobill darwini. It was first described by V. W. Framenau & N. Scharff in 2009, and has only been found in Australia.
Tapetosa is a genus of spiders in the family Lycosidae. It was first described in 2009 by Framenau et al.. As of 2017, it contains only one species, Tapetosa darwini, found in western Australia.
Anamidae is a family of Australian mygalomorph spiders. It was first described as a tribe by Simon in 1889, then raised to the subfamily Anaminae of the family Nemesiidae, before being raised to a family level by Opatova et al. in 2020.
Missulena rutraspina is a species of mygalomorph spiders in the family Actinopodidae. It is found in Western Australia.
Swolnpes morganensis is a species of mygalomorph spider in the Anamidae family. It is endemic to Australia. It was described in 2009 by Australian arachnologists Barbara York Main and Volker Framenau.
Aname marae is a species of mygalomorph spider in the Anamidae family. It is endemic to Australia. It was described in 2012 by Frances Harvey, Volker Framenau, Janine Wojcieszkek, Michael Rix and Mark Harvey. The specific epithet marae honours Mara Blosfelds, the mother of the senior author.
