Palpimanoidea or palpimanoids are a group of araneomorph spiders, originally treated as a superfamily. As with many such groups, its circumscription has varied. As of September 2018, the following five families were included:[1][2]

The Palpimanoidea (together with the Dionycha) are the only spider group with no cribellate members.[citation needed]

Phylogeny

In 1984, Raymond R. Forster and Norman I. Platnick proposed that some groups previously considered araneoid actually belonged in the distantly related Palpimanoidea, including the families Holarchaeidae, Micropholcommatidae, Mimetidae and Pararchaeidae. Subsequent phylogenetic studies have rejected this proposal, firmly placing them in Araneoidea.[2]

Studies published in 2012 and 2013, using morphological, molecular and fossil evidence, agreed that Palpimanoidea is monophyletic.[1][3] Molecular data suggested the following relationship between the five families comprising the Palpimanoidea, although three of the families were represented by only one species each:[1]

Palpimanoidea

Mecysmaucheniidae

Palpimanidae (Palpimanus sp.)

Huttoniidae (Huttonia sp.)

Stenochilidae (Colopea sp.)

Archaeidae

Using only the morphological data produced a different arrangement of the families:[1]

Palpimanoidea

Huttoniidae (Huttonia sp.)

Palpimanidae (Palpimanus sp.)

Stenochilidae (Colopea sp.)

Mecysmaucheniidae

Archaeidae

A large molecular phylogenetic study, first published online in 2016, grouped the five families in the same way, but suggested that the Palpimanoidea, together with part of the non-monophyletic Leptonetidae, were a paraphyletic group basal to the large Entelegynae clade:[4]

Mecysmaucheniidae

Palpimanidae

Huttoniidae

Stenochilidae

Archaeidae

Leptonetidae (part)

Entelegynae

Palpimanoidea

Nevertheless, the authors preferred to accept the earlier conclusion based on multiple lines of evidence that the Palpimanoidea are a monophyletic group.[4]
