Tutaibo is a genus of sheet weavers that was first described by Ralph Vary Chamberlin in 1916. [3]
As of June 2019 [update] it contains ten species, found in South America, Mexico, the United States, and Guatemala: [1]
Anyphaenidae is a family of araneomorph spiders, sometimes called anyphaenid sac spiders. They are distinguished from the sac spiders of the family Clubionidae and other spiders by having the abdominal spiracle placed one third to one half of the way anterior to the spinnerets toward the epigastric furrow on the underside of the abdomen. In most spiders the spiracle is just anterior to the spinnerets. Like clubionids, anyphaenids have eight eyes arranged in two rows, conical anterior spinnerets and are wandering predators that build silken retreats, or sacs, usually on plant terminals, between leaves, under bark or under rocks. There are more than 500 species in over 50 genera worldwide.
Linyphiidae is a family of very small spiders comprising 4667 described species in 618 genera worldwide. This makes Linyphiidae the second largest family of spiders after the Salticidae. The family is poorly known; new genera and species are still being discovered throughout the world. The newest such genus is Yuelushannus from China, formally described in May 2020. Because of the difficulty in identifying such tiny spiders, there are regular changes in taxonomy as species are combined or divided.
Tenedos is a spider genus of the family Zodariidae. It has around 45 species from Central and South America.
Castianeira is a genus of ant-like corinnid sac spiders first described by Eugen von Keyserling in 1879. They are found in Eurasia, Africa, and the Americas, but are absent from Australia. Twenty-six species are native to North America, and at least twice as many are native to Mexico and Central America.
Kaira, sometimes called frilled orbweavers, is a mostly neotropical genus of orb-weaver spiders first described by O. Pickard-Cambridge in 1889. It includes sixteen described species that occur from South America up to the southern and eastern USA. It is presumably related to Aculepeira, Amazonepeira and Metepeira.
Metepeira is a genus of orb-weaver spiders first described by F. O. Pickard-Cambridge in 1903. The name is derived from the Ancient Greek μετά and the obsolete genus name Epeira, denoting a genus similar to Epeira.
Mermessus is a genus of spiders in the family Linyphiidae. It was first described in 1899 by O. Pickard-Cambridge. As of 2017, it contains 81 species.
Euryopis is a genus of comb-footed spiders that was first described by Anton Menge in 1868.
Agyneta is a genus of dwarf spiders that was first described by J. E. Hull in 1911.
Laminacauda is a genus of dwarf spiders that was first described by Alfred Frank Millidge in 1985.
Linyphia is a genus of dwarf spiders that was first described by Pierre André Latreille in 1804. The name is Greek, and means "thread-weaver" or "linen maker".
Gelanor is a genus of spiders in the family Mimetidae, found in Central and South America.
Parawixia is a genus of orb-weaver spiders first described by F. O. Pickard-Cambridge in 1904. Most species are found in the Neotropics but one species, Parawixia dehaani, is found in Australasia and tropical Asia as far west as India.
Patrera is a genus of anyphaenid sac spiders first described by Eugène Simon in 1903.
Trachelas is a genus of araneomorph spiders originally placed with the Trachelidae, and later moved to the Corinnidae.
Chrysometa is a genus of long-jawed orb-weavers that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1894. It is a senior synonym of Capichameta.
Eustala is a genus of orb-weaver spiders first described by Eugène Simon in 1895.
Metagonia is a genus of cellar spiders that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1893.
Sphecozone is a genus of sheet weavers that was first described by Octavius Pickard-Cambridge in 1871.
Faiditus is a genus of comb-footed spiders that was first described by Eugen von Keyserling in 1884.
