Linyphiidae Blackwall, 1859

Family | ACCEPTED

N.B.: for comments on relationships, see Michalik & Hormiga, 2010: 7; re-synonymization of Pimoidae (Murphy & Roberts, 2015: ix) not sufficiently justified and is not accepted here; Sinopimoidae Li & Wunderlich, 2008 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spiderfam:0112] synonymyized with Linyphiidae by Dimitrov et al., 2017: 245; resurrection of Sinopimoidae by Wunderlich, 2020b: 20 is not accepted here, because Dimitrov et al., 2017 was not taken into account; re-elevation of Sinopimoidae to family level by Eskov & Marusik, 2023: 343 not accepted here (by majority vote of the WSC boards); the current status of Sinopimoidae is also maintained for reasons of stability and we wait for a probable confirmation or rejection of this resurrection; other subfamilies are Erigoninae Emerton, 1882: 7 and Mynogleninae Lehtinen, 1967: 250.

In synonymy:

Stylophora Menge, 1866 = Diplostyla Emerton, 1882 (Merrett, 1963b: 465)

Homonym replaced:

Stylophora Menge, 1866 -- see Diplostyla Emerton, 1882

Gen. Diplostyla Emerton, 1882 urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:00933

N.B.: considered the earliest name available to replace Stylophora Menge, 1866: 128 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:03839] (type Linyphia concolor Wider, 1834; see Merrett, 1963b: 465), preoccupied in Anthozoa by Schweigger, 1819 and in Diptera by Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830; placed as a subgenus of Bathyphantes Menge, 1866 by Ivie, 1969: 60, but regarded as a separate genus by later authors.
