Tivyna is a genus of cribellate araneomorph spiders in the family Dictynidae, and was first described by R. V. Chamberlin in 1948. [2]
As of May 2019 [update] it contains four species: [1]
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.
Nigma is a genus of cribellate araneomorph spiders in the family Dictynidae, and was first described by Pekka T. Lehtinen in 1967. They have a wide distribution, including Eurasia, North America, and Northern Africa. N. walckenaeri is one of the biggest members of the Dictynidae, growing up to 5 millimetres (0.20 in) long. They are translucent green and sometimes have red or black markings on the abdomen.
Mallos is a genus of cribellate araneomorph spiders in the family Dictynidae, and was first described by O. Pickard-Cambridge in 1902. Among the genus, Mallos gregalis is known to be a social spider species, living in groups and signaling each other by vibrating their web.
Brommella is a genus of cribellate araneomorph spiders in the family Dictynidae, and was first described by Albert Tullgren in 1948.
Cicurina, also called the cave meshweaver, is a genus of dwarf sheet spiders that was first described by Anton Menge in 1871. Originally placed with the funnel weavers, it was moved to the Dictynidae in 1967, then to the Hahniidae in 2017. The name is from the Latin root "cucur-", meaning "to tame".
Dictyna is a genus of cribellate araneomorph spiders in the family Dictynidae, and was first described by Carl Jakob Sundevall in 1833.
Kibramoa is a genus of North American plectreurid spiders that was first described by Ralph Vary Chamberlin in 1924.
Zanomys is a genus of North American tangled nest spiders first described by R. V. Chamberlin in 1948.
Hololena is a genus of North American funnel weavers first described by R. V. Chamberlin & Willis J. Gertsch in 1929.
Argenna is a genus of cribellate araneomorph spiders in the family Dictynidae, and was first described by Tamerlan Thorell in 1870.
Blabomma is a genus of araneomorph spiders in the family Cybaeidae, and was first described by R. V. Chamberlin & Wilton Ivie in 1937. Originally placed with the funnel weavers, it was moved to the Dictynidae in 1967, and to the Cybaeidae in 2017.
Emblyna is a genus of cribellate araneomorph spiders in the family Dictynidae, and was first described by R. V. Chamberlin in 1948.
Phantyna is a genus of cribellate araneomorph spiders in the family Dictynidae, and was first described by R. V. Chamberlin in 1948.
Thallumetus is a genus of cribellate araneomorph spiders in the family Dictynidae, and was first described by Eugène Simon in 1893.
Tricholathys is a genus of cribellate araneomorph spiders in the family Dictynidae, and was first described by R. V. Chamberlin & Wilton Ivie in 1935.
Yorima is a genus of araneomorph spiders in the family Cybaeidae, and was first described by R. V. Chamberlin & Wilton Ivie in 1942. Originally placed in the funnel weaver family, it was moved to the Dictynidae in 1967, and to the Cybaeidae in 2017.
Eulaira is a genus of North American dwarf spiders that was first described by Ralph Vary Chamberlin & Vaine Wilton Ivie in 1933.
Phruronellus is a genus of North American araneomorph spiders first described by R. V. Chamberlin in 1921. Originally placed with the Liocranidae, it was moved to the Corinnidae in 2002, and to the Phrurolithidae in 2014.
Phrurotimpus is a genus of araneomorph spiders first described by R. V. Chamberlin and Wilton Ivie in 1935. Originally added to the Liocranidae, it was moved to the Corinnidae in 2002, then to the Phrurolithidae in 2014. They have red egg sacs that look like flattened discs, often found on the underside of stones.
