Description
Family Phalangiidae Latreille, 1802
Dicranopalpus genus group
Remarks. The following two genera are clearly related, but their position has been debated. For example Martens (1978) referred them to Gyantinae [= Gyinae]. Crawford (1992, p. 4) disputed this and recognised an informal ‘ Dicranopalpus genus group’ comprising Dicranopalpus, Amelinus and Lanthanopilio Cokendolpher & Cokendolpher, 1984; which he suggested could eventually merit family status. In the absence of further revision, Crawford’s term is adopted here.
