N.B.: compared by Lawrence with "Choriozopes" of the "family [sic] Choriozopeae" (although attributed by him to the Araneidae rather than Theridiidae), so original spelling considered "an evident lapsus calami" and emended by Brignoli, 1983c: 265; transferred from the Araneidae to the Theridiidae by Emerit, 1997: 51 (following Levi, pers. commun.).
