Stegodyphus Simon 1873
GenusStegodyphusSimon, 1873 Comments. Stegodyphus is the second-largest genus of velvet spiders, with 20 valid species mainly diversified in Africa (WSC 2024) and differing from other related genera by the long, acute clypeal hood and arboreal lifestyle (vs. subterranean). A single species, S. lineatus (Latreille, 1817), recorded in the Caucasus, was recently discovered in Georgia.
