Zelotibia is a genus of African ground spiders that was first described by A. Russell-Smith & J. A. Murphy in 2005. [2]
As of May 2019 [update] it contains twenty-two species: [1]
Oonopidae, also known as goblin spiders, is a family of spiders consisting of over 1,600 described species in about 113 genera worldwide, with total species diversity estimated at 2000 to 2500 species. The type genus of the family is OonopsKeyserling, 1835.
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.
Stenaelurillus is a genus of jumping spiders that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1886. Most species live in Africa, with some species found in Asia, including China. All species have two white longitudinal stripes on the carapace, and both sexes show strong bristles around the eyes. The name is a combination of the Greek sten- "narrow" and the salticid genus Aelurillus.
Pachygnatha is a genus of long-jawed orb-weavers that was first described by Carl Jakob Sundevall in 1823.
Smeringopus is a genus of cellar spiders that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1890.
Agyneta is a genus of dwarf spiders that was first described by J. E. Hull in 1911.
Ceratinopsis is a genus of dwarf spiders that was first described by James Henry Emerton in 1882.
Hortipes is a genus of African corinnid sac spiders first described by J. Bosselaers & J.-C. Ledoux in 1998.
Zelowan is a genus of African ground spiders that was first described by J. A. Murphy & A. Russell-Smith in 2010.
Bursellia is a genus of African dwarf spiders that was first described by Å. Holm in 1962.
Holmelgonia is a genus of African dwarf spiders that was first described by R. Jocqué & N. Scharff in 2007.
Mecynidis is a genus of African dwarf spiders that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1894. Originally placed with the tangle-web spiders, it was moved to the Linyphiidae in 1964.
Metaleptyphantes is a genus of dwarf spiders that was first described by G. H. Locket in 1968.
Microcyba is a genus of African dwarf spiders that was first described by Å. Holm in 1962.
Pelecopsis is a genus of dwarf spiders that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1864.
Toschia is a genus of sheet weavers that was first described by Lodovico di Caporiacco in 1949.
Diores is a genus of spiders in the family Zodariidae.
Trabea is a genus of wolf spiders first described by Eugène Simon in 1876.
