Gen. Pochytoides Wesołowska, 2020 urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:04446

type Pochyta (Pochytoides) poissoni Berland & Millot, 1941; gender masculine (ICZN Article 30.1.4.4)

N.B.: described as a subgenus of Pochyta Simon, 1901 by Berland & Millot, 1941: 361, but this description was not valid after ICZN Article 13.3., because no type species was fixed; the subgenus was elevated to genus level by Wesołowska, 2018a: 3; Wesołowska, 2020b: 56 gave the genus the same name, which was formerly a nomen nudum.
