Cornifalx
''Cornifalx'' is a monotypic genus of Tasmanian araneomorph spiders in the family Orsolobidae containing the single species, ''Cornifalx insignis''. It was first described by V. V. Hickman in 1979, and is only found in Tasmania.

Orsolobidae
Orsolobidae is a six-eyed spider family with about 180 described species in thirty genera. It was first described by J. A. L. Cooke in 1965, and was raised to family status from "Dysderidae" in 1985. Genera Most genera are endemic to New Zealand and the Australian region, but several genera occur in southern Africa and South America. , the World Spider Catalog accepts the following genera: *'' Afrilobus'' Griswold & Platnick, 1987 — South Africa, Malawi *'' Anopsolobus'' Forster & Platnick, 1985 — New Zealand *'' Ascuta'' Forster, 1956 — New Zealand *'' Australobus'' Forster & Platnick, 1985 — Australia *'' Azanialobus'' Griswold & Platnick, 1987 — South Africa *'' Basibulbus'' Ott, Platnick, Berniker & Bonaldo, 2013 *'' Bealeyia'' Forster & Platnick, 1985 — New Zealand *''Calculus'' Purcell, 1910 — South Africa *'' Chileolobus'' Forster & Platnick, 1985 — Chile *'' Cornifalx'' Hickman, 1979 — Australia *'' Dugdalea'' Forster & Platnick, 1985 — New Zealand ...

Monotypic Taxon
In biology, a monotypic taxon is a taxonomic group (taxon) that contains only one immediately subordinate taxon. A monotypic species is one that does not include subspecies or smaller, infraspecific taxa. In the case of genera, the term "unispecific" or "monospecific" is sometimes preferred. In botanical nomenclature, a monotypic genus is a genus in the special case where a genus and a single species are simultaneously described. In contrast, an oligotypic taxon contains more than one but only a very few subordinate taxa. Examples Just as the term ''monotypic'' is used to describe a taxon including only one subdivision, the contained taxon can also be referred to as monotypic within the higher-level taxon, e.g. a genus monotypic within a family. Some examples of monotypic groups are: Plants * In the order Amborellales, there is only one family, Amborellaceae and there is only one genus, '' Amborella'', and in this genus there is only one species, namely ''Amborella trichopoda ...

Genus
Genus ( plural genera ) is a taxonomic rank used in the biological classification of extant taxon, living and fossil organisms as well as Virus classification#ICTV classification, viruses. In the hierarchy of biological classification, genus comes above species and below family (taxonomy), family. In binomial nomenclature, the genus name forms the first part of the binomial species name for each species within the genus. :E.g. ''Panthera leo'' (lion) and ''Panthera onca'' (jaguar) are two species within the genus ''Panthera''. ''Panthera'' is a genus within the family Felidae. The composition of a genus is determined by taxonomy (biology), taxonomists. The standards for genus classification are not strictly codified, so different authorities often produce different classifications for genera. There are some general practices used, however, including the idea that a newly defined genus should fulfill these three criteria to be descriptively useful: # monophyly – all descendants ...

Araneomorphae
The Araneomorphae (also called the Labidognatha) are an infraorder of spiders. They are distinguishable by chelicerae (fangs) that point diagonally forward and cross in a pinching action, in contrast to the Mygalomorphae (tarantulas and their close kin), where they point straight down. Araneomorphs comprise the vast majority of living spiders. Distinguishing characteristics Most spider species are Araneomorphae, which have fangs that face towards each other, increasing the orientations they can employ during prey capture. They have fewer book lungs (when present), and the females typically live one year. The Mygalomorphae have fangs that face towards the ground, and which are parallel to the long axis of the spider's body, thus they have only one orientation they can employ during prey capture. They have four pairs of book lungs, and the females often live many years. Image:Atrax robustus.jpg, This ''Atrax robustus'' shows the orientation of Myglamorphae fangs. Image:Che ...
