Phlogius
[edit]This genus should be added Phlogius. 70.54.8.229 22:12, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
Information
[edit]A few genera are presently not well-classified, and/or have classifications which are disputed:
- Spelopelminae: In 2003, the genus Spelopelma was subsumed into the genus Hemirrhagus, thus subsuming the former subfamily Spelopelminae into Theraphosinae.
- Brachionopus Pocock, 1897. Dollar has recently proposed transferring this genus to the family Barychelidae; a proposal which is still disputed.
- Proshapalopus Mello-Leitão, 1923. This has been placed in several different sub-families by several different arachnologists.
