The Agelenoidea or agelenoids are a superfamily or informal group of araneomorph spiders. In 1999, a phylogenetic study found a clade called "agelenoids" consisting of members of the families Agelenidae, Amphinectidae and Desidae.[1] A 2005 study did not confirm this grouping, instead placing these three families plus Dictynidae in a clade called the "fused cribellar clade".[2] In 2014, a cladogram produced in a study of dionychan spiders placed members of the families Amaurobiidae and Cycloctenidae in a clade with members of Agelenidae, Amphinectidae and Desidae. (The Amaurobiidae, represented by the genera Pimus and Macrobunus, was not monophyletic.)[3]

RTA Clade

Amaurobiidae (Pimus)

Stiphidiidae (Stiphidion)

Agelenidae (Neoramia)

Amaurobiidae (Macrobunus)

Cycloctenidae (Toxopsiella, Cycloctenus)

Desidae (Badumna)

Amphinectidae (Calacadia, Metaltella)

"Oval Calamistrum Clade"

The status of the agelenoids thus remains uncertain as of October 2015.
