Agelena
Agelena is a genus of agelenid spiders first described by Charles Athanase Walckenaer in 1805. Sometimes referred to as Eurasian grass spiders, they trap their prey by weaving entangling non-sticky funnel webs. They are limited to the Old world, occurring from Africa to Japan. Many species have been moved to other genera, particularly to ''Allagelena'', '' Benoitia'' and ''Mistaria''. ''Agelena limbata'' is one of the most common web-weaving spider species in Japan. Species , the World Spider Catalog accepted 46 species: *'' Agelena annulipedella'' Strand, 1913 — Central Africa *''Agelena atlantea'' Fage, 1938 — Morocco *'' Agelena australis'' Simon, 1896 — South Africa *'' Agelena babai'' Tanikawa, 2005 — Japan *'' Agelena barunae'' Tikader, 1970 — India *'' Agelena borbonica'' Vinson, 1863 — Réunion *'' Agelena canariensis'' Lucas, 1838 — Canary Is., Morocco, Algeria *'' Agelena chayu'' Zhang, Zhu & Song, 2005 — China *'' Agelena choi'' Paik, 1965 — Korea * ...

Agelenopsis
''Agelenopsis'', commonly known as the American grass spiders, is a genus of funnel weavers first described by C.G. Giebel in 1869. They weave sheet webs that have a funnel shelter on one edge. The web is not sticky, but these spiders make up for that shortcoming by running very rapidly. The larger specimens (depending on species) can grow to about 19 mm in body length. They may be recognized by the arrangement of their eight eyes into three rows. The top row has two eyes, the middle row has four eyes, and the bottom row has two eyes (spaced wider than the ones on the top row). They have two prominent hind spinnerets, somewhat indistinct bands on their legs, and two dark bands running down either side of the cephalothorax. Name The genus name is a combination of '' Agelena'' (Eurasian grass spiders), a genus of similar spiders, and Greek ''-opsis'' "to look like". They are harmless spiders. Although most spiders use their webs to catch prey, the grass spider's web lacks adh ...

Oxytate
The genus ''Oxytate'', commonly known as grass crab spiders, comprises a homogenous group of nocturnal crab spiders (family Thomisidae). The complete Mitochondrial DNA, mitochondrial genome of the type species ''O. striatipes'' was determined in 2014. Description Although they do not construct webs, both sexes possess a Spider silk, silk apparatus. A study of the type species, ''O. striatipes'', revealed that they possess a simpler and more primitive spigot system than other members of the family, as even the females possess neither tubuliform glands for cocoon production, nor triad spigots for web-building. Males and females do however have three types of silk gland, which are classified as ampullate, pyriform and aciniform. Four ampullate glands are connected to the anterior spinnerets, while eight minor ampullate glands are connected to the median spinnerets. The pyriform glands are connected to the anterior spinnerets (90 in females and 80 in males). The aciniform glands a ...
