Pisauridae Simon, 1890

Family | ACCEPTED

N.B.: placement of some nursery-web spiders in a separate family Dolomedidae Simon, 1898a: 281, 301 (Lehtinen, 1967) [but Dolomedinae was first used by Simon, 1876a: 226, which makes it older than Pisauridae, overlooked by Bonnet, 1956: 1543] was rejected by Sierwald, 1990: 50, who also recognized a "Trechalea genus group [that] is not a close relative of the nursery-web Pisauridae" and whose members are now listed under Trechaleidae; considered a synonym of Bradystichidae Simon, 1884e: 298 (removed from the synonymy of Lycosidae by Lehtinen, 1967: 293) by Platnick & Forster, 1993: 3 and of Halidae Jocqué, 1994b: 281 by Jocqué & Dippenaar-Schoeman, 2006: 212; probably includes Senoculidae (Murphy & Roberts, 2015: ix); mentioning of "Dolomediens" by Simon, 1864: 342, but the French ending -iens was not accepted as taxon at familiar level by Bonnet and Platnick, and this is continued here; the family is not monophyletic per Kulkarni, Wood & Hormiga, 2023: 518, f. 17-18.

In synonymy:

Hypsithylla Simon, 1903 = Hygropoda Thorell, 1895 (Silva, 2012b: 60)

Gen. Hygropoda Thorell, 1895 urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:01713

N.B.: Thorell, 1894b: 324 defined H. prognatha as type species of the genus, so the change to H. dolomedes by Simon, 1898a: 316 was invalid; considered a senior synonym of Hypsithylla Simon, 1903d: 38 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:01714] (type H. linearis Simon, 1903) by Silva, 2012b: 60.

Transferred to other genera:

Hygropoda andina Simon, 1898 -- see Paradossenus

Hygropoda venezuelana Simon, 1898 -- see Paradossenus
