As of May 2019 [update] it contains twenty-seven species: [1]
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.
Tegenaria is a genus of fast-running funnel weavers that occupy much of the Northern Hemisphere except for Japan and Indonesia. It was first described by Pierre André Latreille in 1804, though many of its species have been moved elsewhere. The majority of these were moved to Eratigena, including the giant house spider and the hobo spider.
Zodarion is a genus of ant-eating spiders from the family Zodariidae. Over 150 species from Eurasia and North Africa have been described as of May 2017.
Aelurillus is a genus of spiders in the family Salticidae.
Chalcoscirtus is a genus of jumping spiders that was first described by Philipp Bertkau in 1880. The name is derived from the Ancient Greek chalc-, meaning "copper", and scirt-, meaning "leap".
Pellenes is a genus of jumping spiders that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1876. It is considered a senior synonym of Hyllothyene.
Gnaphosa is a genus of ground spiders that was first described by Pierre André Latreille in 1804. They all have a serrated keel on the retromargin of each chelicera.
Sahastata is a genus of crevice weavers that was first described by Pierre L.G. Benoit in 1968.
Anemesia is a genus of Asian wafer trapdoor spiders that was first described by Reginald Innes Pocock in 1895.
Devade is a genus of cribellate araneomorph spiders in the family Dictynidae, and was first described by Eugène Simon in 1884. Originally placed with the Amaurobiidae, it was moved to the intertidal spiders in 1983, then to the Dictynidae in 1989.
Lathys is a genus of cribellate araneomorph spiders in the family Dictynidae, and was first described by Eugène Simon in 1884. It is a replacement name for "Lethia" Menge, 1869 because that name was already in use as a synonym for a genus of moths.
Phyxioschema is a genus of Asian spiders in the family Euagridae. It was first described by Eugène Simon in 1889.
Parasyrisca is a genus of ground spiders that was first described by E. Schenkel in 1963. Originally placed with the sac spiders, it was moved to the Miturgidae in 1967, then to the ground spiders in 1988.
Pterotricha is a genus of ground spiders that was first described by Władysław Kulczyński in 1903.
