Agelenidae C. L. Koch, 1837

Family | ACCEPTED

N.B.: Miller et al., 2010: 801 rejected the placement of Coelotes and allied genera by Wunderlich, 1986: 24 as being more closely related to Amaurobius than to Agelena; Coelotinae F. O. Pickard-Cambridge, 1893: 158 were treated as a separate family Coelotidae by Ono, 2008; transfers of Cryphoeca and Tuberta to the Hahniidae and genera Blabomma, Chorizomma, Cicurina and Mastigusa to the Dictynidae by Lehtinen, 1967.

In synonymy:

Ommathadites Kishida, 1955 = Histopona Thorell, 1870 (Kishida, 1955: 10, type species belongs to Histopona)

Roeweriana Kratochvíl, 1938 = Histopona Thorell, 1870 (Deeleman-Reinhold, 1983: 326)

Gen. Histopona Thorell, 1870 urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:01824

N.B.: considered a senior synonym of Roeweriana Kratochvíl, 1938 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:04782] (described as a subgenus of Hadites Keyserling, 1862; type H. bidens Absolon & Kratochvíl, 1933; elevated to genus by Brignoli, 1972e: 862) by Deeleman-Reinhold, 1983: 326; considered a senior synonym of Ommathadites Kishida, 1955: 10 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:05833] (type Hadites myops Simon, 1885), because the type species belongs to Histopona (Ommathadites was considered a nomen nudum by Yaginuma, in Brignoli, 1983c: 468); probably a senior synonym of Pseudotegenaria (Murphy & Roberts, 2015: ix).

Transferred to other genera:

Histopona litoralis Wunderlich, 2021 -- see Textrix
