Prodidominae
Prodidomidae is a family of spider, sometimes called long-spinneret ground spiders. It was formerly regarded as a subfamily of Gnaphosidae, but was raised to a family in 2022. Spiders in the family are easily identified by the greatly elongated base of the piriform gland spigots. At least parts of their body are covered with shiny scales or setae. The posterior median eyes are flat and silvery, with a triangular, egg-shaped or irregularly rectangular shape.Barbara BaehrProdidomidae/ref> Biology Spiders in the Prodidomidae are ground dwellers. Most species are nocturnal and hide during the day in litter, but ''Myandra'' species, which are probably Ant mimicry, mimicking ants, seem to be active during the day. The genus ''Zimiris'' is synanthropic and thus found throughout the tropics. Distribution Although ''Theuma walteri'' was described from Turkmenistan by Eugène Simon, it is suspected that Simon accidentally exchanged its locality with that of ''Anagraphis Anagraphis pallens ...
