Corinnidae Karsch, 1880

Family | ACCEPTED

N.B.: considered valid by Wunderlich, 1986: 28, so genera listed by Brignoli, 1983c under Castianeirinae Reiskind, 1969: 179 and Corinninae (within the Clubionidae s. lat.) are treated here; Wunderlich used the name Myrmeciidae, which is already in use for ants (see Reiskind, 1983); Reiskind proposed that the International Commission validate the spelling Myrmeciuminae, but as there are already names available and in common use for both Corinninae and Castianeirinae it is easier to simply suppress Myrmeciinae C. L. Koch, 1850; the family is not monophyletic per Kulkarni, Wood & Hormiga, 2023: 522, f. 20.

N.B.: considered a senior synonymy of Tyrrhus Thorell, 1895b: 38 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:06422] (type T. nitidus Thorell, 1895) by Simon, 1897a: 175; considered a senior synonymy of Mazax O. Pickard-Cambridge, 1898 by Simon, 1903a: 1037, not accepted by Chamberlin, 1925d: 221, synonmy confirmed by Petrunkevitch, 1928: 230, accepted by Roewer, 1955c: 607, not accepted by Banks, 1929: 60 and Bonnet, 1957: 2741, Mazax finally regarded as valid by Reiskind, 1969: 258.
