Zodariidae
Ant spiders are members of the family Zodariidae. They are small to medium-sized eight-eyed spiders found in all tropical and subtropical regions of South America, Africa, Madagascar, Australia-New Guinea, New Zealand, Arabia and the Indian subcontinent. Most species are daytime hunters and live together with ants, mimicking their behavior and sometimes even their chemical traits. Although little is known about most zodariids, members of the genus '' Zodarion'' apparently feed only on ants; a number of other genera in the family are apparently also ant (or termite) specialists. Genera , the World Spider Catalog accepted the following genera: *''Acanthinozodium'' Denis, 1966 *''Akyttara'' Jocqué, 1987 *''Amphiledorus'' Jocqué & Bosmans, 2001 *'' Antillorena'' Jocqué, 1991 *'' Asceua'' Thorell, 1887 *'' Aschema'' Jocqué, 1991 *'' Asteron'' Jocqué, 1991 *'' Australutica'' Jocqué, 1995 *'' Ballomma'' Jocqué & Henrard, 2015 *'' Basasteron'' Baehr, 2003 *'' Caesetius'' Simon, ...
