Colossendeidae is a family of sea spider (class Pycnogonida). Like most sea spiders, all species in this family have four pairs of legs, except for three species (Decolopoda australis, D. qasimi, and Pentacolossendeis reticulata) with five pairs[1][2] and one (Dodecolopoda mawsoni) with six pairs.[3]
