Misumessus Tamiami
''Misumessus'' is a genus of North American and Caribbean crab spiders first described by Nathan Banks in 1904. They look similar to members of ''Misumena'', but are much spinier. It was considered a monotypic genus until 2017, but its taxonomic standing has been debated throughout the 20th century, first as a synonym of ''Misumenops'', then later as its subgenus. It was raised to genus status in 2008, but has still been confused with similar genera, some of which were only known by character descriptions made by Eugène Simon nearly fifty years earlier.

Monotypic Araneomorphae Genera
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.' ...

Eugène Simon
Eugène Louis Simon (; 30 April 1848 – 17 November 1924) was a French naturalist who worked particularly on insects and spiders, but also on birds and plants. He is by far the most prolific spider taxonomist in history, describing over 4,000 species. Work on spiders His most significant work was ''Histoire Naturelle des Araignées'' (1892–1903), an encyclopedic treatment of the spider genera of the world. It was published in two volumes of more than 1000 pages each, and the same number of drawings by Simon. Working at the Muséum National d'Histoire Naturelle in Paris, it took Simon 11 years to complete, while working at the same time on devising a taxonomic scheme that embraced the known taxa. Simon described a total of 4,650 species, and as of 2013 about 3,790 species are still considered valid. The International Society of Arachnology offers a Simon Award recognising lifetime achievement. The Eocene fossil spider species '' Cenotextricella simoni'' was named in his ...

Species
In biology, a species is the basic unit of classification and a taxonomic rank of an organism, as well as a unit of biodiversity. A species is often defined as the largest group of organisms in which any two individuals of the appropriate sexes or mating types can produce fertile offspring, typically by sexual reproduction. Other ways of defining species include their karyotype, DNA sequence, morphology, behaviour or ecological niche. In addition, paleontologists use the concept of the chronospecies since fossil reproduction cannot be examined. The most recent rigorous estimate for the total number of species of eukaryotes is between 8 and 8.7 million. However, only about 14% of these had been described by 2011. All species (except viruses) are given a two-part name, a "binomial". The first part of a binomial is the genus to which the species belongs. The second part is called the specific name or the specific epithet (in botanical nomenclature, also sometimes i ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Misumenops
''Misumenops'' is a common genus of crab spider with more than 50 described species. The majority of the species Mesumenops, more than 80, have been transferred to 13 genera: '' Ansiea'', '' Demogenes'', ''Diaea'', '' Ebelingia'', '' Ebrechtella'', '' Henriksenia'', '' Heriaeus'', ''Mecaphesa'', '' Micromisumenops '', ''Misumena'', ''Misumenoides'', '' Misumessus'', and '' Runcinioides''. Distribution Most species of this genus occur in the Americas from Canada to Argentina, with only a few exceptions: * Sixteen species are found on Hawaii, one ('' M. dalmasi'') on the Marquesas Islands, one '' M. melloloitaoi'' on Tahiti, and one '' M. rapaensis'' on Easter Island. * Two species ('' M. forcatus'' and '' M. zhangmuensis'') occur in China, '' M. armatus'' in Central Asia, '' M. turanicus'' in Uzbekistan, '' M. khandalaensis'' in India, '' M. morrisi'' on the Philippines, '' M. nepenthicola'' in Singapore and Borneo. * '' M. rubrodecoratus'' occurs in Africa, '' M. ...
