Theraphosidae Thorell, 1869

Family | ACCEPTED

N.B.: for the year of description (1869 vs. 1870) see Sherwood et al., 2021: 396, Breitling, 2021b published a different opinion; Raven, 1994: 333 considered the Trichopelmatinae (genera Trichopelma and Psalistops) to belong to the Theraphosidae rather than to Barychelidae, but has not provided a phylogenetic argument for this change; Trichopelma was finally transferred to the Theraphosidae (Guadanucci, 2014: 514) as well as Psalistops (Mori & Bertani, 2020: 37), so in fact Trichopelmatinae is now transferred to Theraphosidae; the monophyly of Theraphosidae and of the most recognized theraphosid subfamilies was confirmed by Lüddecke et al., 2018 and by Foley et al., 2019.

In synonymy:

Lasiocnemus Ausserer, 1871 = Grammostola Simon, 1892 (Schmidt, 1994e: 5, automatically together with its replacement name Lasiopelma)

Lasiopelma Simon, 1892 = Grammostola Simon, 1892 (Schmidt, 1994e: 5, contra Raven, 1985a: 119, who placed it as a S of Tapinauchenius Ausserer, 1871)

Polyspina Schmidt, 1994 = Grammostola Simon, 1892 (Bertani & Fukushima, 2004: 330, automatically with its replacement name Polyspinosa)

Polyspinosa Schmidt, 1999 = Grammostola Simon, 1892 (Bertani & Fukushima, 2004: 330)
