distribution and habitat

Distribution map of the Cyatholipidae

The species are distributed in Central and South Africa , Madagascar , Australia and New Zealand . In Jamaica only one kind occurs (on dentipes Pokennips ). The endemic Malagasy representatives of the Cyatholipidae live mostly in moist montane forests of the tropics from 600 m above sea level up to 2000 m. They hang at a height of 20 cm to 2 m next to their ceiling nets , which they weave between plants. However, certain species, such as Scharffia rossi , also live in arid regions such as savannahs .

Fossils

Fossil are some species of this spider family ( Spinilipus with one kind and Succinilipus with three kinds) from the Baltic amber ( Eocene ) and the same age Bitterfeld amber .
