Description

Family Entypesidae Bond, Opatova & Hedin, 2020

The spider family Entipesidae has been recently established to accomodate three genera previously listed in the Nemesiidae: Entypesa Simon, 1902, Hermacha Simon, 1889, and Lepthercus Purcell, 1902 (Opatova et al. 2020). All known entypesids are distributed only in the southernmost part of the Afrotropical Region (World Spider Catalog 2020); this being also the case of the fourth genus of the family, described below.
