Teyl harveyi is a species of mygalomorph spider in the Anamidae family. It is endemic to Australia. It was described in 2004 by Australian arachnologist Barbara York Main. [1] [2]
The species occurs in the Mallee region of western Victoria. The type locality is 24.9 km south-east of Murrayville. [2]
The Mygalomorphae, or mygalomorphs, are an infraorder of spiders, and comprise one of three major groups of living spiders with over 3000 species, found on all continents except Antarctica. Many members are known as trapdoor spiders due to their creation of trapdoors over their burrows. Other prominent groups include Australian funnel web spiders and tarantulas, with the latter accounting for around one third of all mygalomorphs.
Actinopodidae is a family of mygalomorph orb weaver spiders found in mainland Australia and South America usually in open forest. Species are most common in Queensland, Australia. It includes mouse spiders, whose bites, though rare, are considered medically significant and potentially dangerous.
Idiopidae, also known as armored trapdoor spiders, is a family of mygalomorph spiders first described by Eugène Simon in 1889. They have a large body similar to tarantulas.
Nemesiidae, also known as funnel-web trapdoor spiders, is a family of mygalomorph spiders first described by Eugène Simon in 1889, and raised to family status in 1985. Before becoming its own family, it was considered part of "Dipluridae".
Teyl is a genus of spiders in the family Anamidae. It is endemic to Australia. It is one of the genera that was placed in the former tribe Teylini. The type species is T. luculentus.
Stanwellia is a genus of South Pacific mygalomorph spiders in the family Pycnothelidae. It was first described by W. J. Rainbow & R. H. Pulleine in 1918. Originally placed with the curtain-web spiders, it was transferred to the funnel-web trapdoor spiders in 1985, then to the Pycnothelidae in 2020. It is a senior synonym of Aparua.
Synothele is a genus of Australian brushed trapdoor spiders first described by Eugène Simon in 1908. The number of species in the genera was greatly expanded by Robert Raven in 1994.
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.
Actinopus harveyi is a species of mygalomorph spider in the family Actinopodidae. It is indigenous to Brazil.
Teyl walkeri is a species of mygalomorph spider in the Anamidae family. It is endemic to Australia. It was described in 2004 by Australian arachnologist Barbara York Main.
Teyl yeni is a species of mygalomorph spider in the Anamidae family. It is endemic to Australia. It was described in 2004 by Australian arachnologist Barbara York Main.
Teyl luculentus, also known as the citrine spider, is a species of mygalomorph spider in the Anamidae family. It is endemic to Australia. It was described in 1975 by Australian arachnologist Barbara York Main, and is the type species of the genus.

Synothele harveyi is a species of mygalomorph spider in the Barychelidae family. It is endemic to Australia. It was described in 1994 by Australian arachnologists Tracey Churchill and Robert Raven. The specific epithet harveyi honours Mark Harvey, Curator of Arachnids at the Western Australian Museum.
