Tikaderia is a genus of funnel weavers containing the single species, Tikaderia psechrina. It was first described by Pekka T. Lehtinen in 1967, [2] and has only been found in . [1]
Uloboridae is a family of non-venomous spiders, known as cribellate orb weavers or hackled orb weavers. Their lack of venom glands is a secondarily evolved trait. Instead, they wrap their prey thoroughly in silk, cover it in regurgitated digestive enzymes, and then ingest the liquified body.
The Agelenidae are a large family of spiders in the suborder Araneomorphae. Well-known examples include the common "grass spiders" of the genus Agelenopsis. Nearly all Agelenidae are harmless to humans, but the bite of the hobo spider may be medically significant, and some evidence suggests it might cause necrotic lesions, but the matter remains subject to debate. The most widely accepted common name for members of the family is funnel weaver.
Crevice weaver spiders (Filistatidae) comprise cribellate spiders with features that have been regarded as "primitive" for araneomorph spiders. They are weavers of funnel or tube webs. The family contains 18 genera and more than 120 described species worldwide.
Titanoecidae is a family of araneomorph spiders first described by Pekka T. Lehtinen in 1967. It is fairly widespread in the New World and Eurasia with five genera and more than 50 species worldwide. These are mostly dark-colored builders of "woolly" (cribellate) silk webs. Several species are found at relatively high altitudes in mountain ranges and may be very common in such habitats.
Amaurobiidae is a family of three-clawed cribellate or ecribellate spiders found in crevices and hollows or under stones where they build retreats, and are often collected in pitfall traps. Unlidded burrows are sometimes quite obvious in crusty, loamy soil. They are difficult to distinguish from related spiders in other families, especially Agelenidae, Desidae and Amphinectidae. Their intra- and interfamilial relationships are contentious. According to the World Spider Catalog, 2023, the family Amaurobiidae includes 286 species in 50 genera.
Zoropsidae, also known as false wolf spiders for their physical similarity to wolf spiders, is a family of cribellate araneomorph spiders first described by Philipp Bertkau in 1882. They can be distinguished from wolf spiders by their two rows of eyes that are more equal in size than those of Lycosidae.
Dictynidae is a family of cribellate, hackled band-producing spiders first described by Octavius Pickard-Cambridge in 1871. Most build irregular webs on or near the ground, creating a tangle of silken fibers among several branches or stems of one plant.
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.
Phyxelididae is a family of araneomorph spiders first described by Pekka T. Lehtinen in 1967 as a subfamily of Amaurobiidae, and later elevated to family status as a sister group of Titanoecidae.
Stiphidiidae, also called sheetweb spiders, is a family of araneomorph spiders first described in 1917. Most species are medium size and speckled brown with long legs. All members of this family occur in New Zealand and Australia except for Asmea. They build a horizontal sheet-like web under rocks, hence the name "sheetweb spiders".
Pekka T. Lehtinen is a Finnish arachnologist and taxonomist. He is known for his works in systematics and for the many expeditions in which he has participated.
Devendra is a genus of Asian false wolf spiders first described by Pekka T. Lehtinen in 1967. The genus is endemic to Sri Lanka.
Yacolla is a genus of South American tangled nest spiders containing the single species, Yacolla pikelinae. It was first described by Pekka T. Lehtinen in 1967, and has only been found in Brazil.
Yupanquia is a genus of South American tangled nest spiders containing the single species, Yupanquia schiapelliae. It was first described by Pekka T. Lehtinen in 1967, and has only been found in Argentina.
Namandia is a monotypic genus of Australian intertidal spiders containing the single species, Namandia periscelis. It was first described by Pekka T. Lehtinen in 1967, and has only been found in Australia.
Gandanameno is a genus of African velvet spiders that was first described by Pekka T. Lehtinen in 1967.
Obatala is a genus of African tangled nest spiders containing the single species, Obatala armata. It was first described by Pekka T. Lehtinen in 1967, and has only been found in South Africa.
Shango capicola is a species of African cribellate araneomorph spider in the family Dictynidae. It is the only species in the monotypic genus Shango. The genus was first described by Pekka T. Lehtinen in 1967, and has only been found in South Africa.
Intihuatana antarctica is a species of South American spider in the dwarf sheet spider family, Hahniidae. It is the only species in the monotypic genus Intihuatana. It was first described by Eugène Simon in 1902, and was moved to its present genus by Pekka T. Lehtinen in 1967. It has only been found in Argentina.
Megadictynidae is a family of araneomorph spiders first described by Pekka T. Lehtinen in 1967. They are endemic to New Zealand.
