Taxonomic notes on the armored spiders of the families Tetrablemmidae and Pacullidae. American Museum novitates ; no. 2650

Abstract

The spider families Tetrablemmidae and Pacullidae are surveyed, and their relationships assessed.At present it is unclear whether the families are closest to the "dysderoids" or to the "scytodoids"; much more morphological and taxonomic data are needed on these putative superfamilies of spiders.The following species are described as new: Tetrablemma extorris, Monoblemma browni, M.
