Nesticidae
Scaffold web spiders (Nesticidae) is a family of araneomorph spiders closely allied with tangle web spiders. Like the "Theridiidae", these spiders have a comb of serrated bristles on the hind tarsi that are used to pull silk bands from the spinnerets. It contains 16 genera and about 300 species, many of which are associated with caves or overhangs. The genus ''Nesticus'' is the type for the family and is found throughout the world. The related '' Eidmannella'' has speciated considerably in Texas caves and includes some extremely localized species that are considered threatened. One species, ''Eidmannella pallida'', is found in caves and under overhangs, but also in agricultural fields and other habitats away from such restricted areas. The genus '' Carpathonesticus'' is found in central Eurasia. Genera , the World Spider Catalog accepts the following genera: *'' Aituaria'' Esyunin & Efimik, 1998 — Ukraine, Russia, Georgia *'' Canarionesticus'' Wunderlich, 1992 — Canary Is. * ...
