Miturgidae
Miturgidae is a family (biology), family of Araneomorphae, araneomorph spiders that includes nearly 170 species in 29 genus, genera worldwide. First described by Eugène Simon in 1886, it has been substantially revised, and includes the previous family Zoridae as a synonym, and excludes the family Xenoctenidae. Several genera have also been removed, such as the large genus ''Cheiracanthium'', which was transferred to the Cheiracanthiidae. Genera , the World Spider Catalog accepts the following genera: *''Argoctenus'' L. Koch, 1878 — New Zealand, Australia, Papua New Guinea *''Diaprograpta'' Simon, 1909 — Australia *''Elassoctenus'' Simon, 1909 — Australia *''Eupograpta'' Raven, 2009 — Australia *''Hestimodema'' Simon, 1909 — Australia *''Israzorides'' Levy, 2003 — Israel *''Mituliodon'' Raven & Stumkat, 2003 — Timor-Leste, Australia *''Miturga'' Thorell, 1870 — Australia *''Mitzoruga'' Raven, 2009 — Australia *''Nuliodon'' Raven, 2009 — Australia *''Odomasta ...

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.' ...
