Family: Linyphiidae Blackwall, 1859 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spiderfam:0103] Back

Gen. Savignia Blackwall, 1833 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:01241 ]
N.B.: considered a senior synonym of Cephalethus Chamberlin & Ivie, 1947b: 30 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:05400] (type C. birostrum Chamberlin & Ivie, 1947) by Tanasevitch, 1985a: 56 and of Delorrhipis Simon, 1884a: 696 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:05401] (type D. fronticornis Simon, 1884) by Wunderlich, 1995s: 648 (but referring to a paper by Millidge, which could not be found); a generic re-organisation of the Savignia group (incl. Araeoncus, Dicymbium, Diplocephalus, Erigonella, Glyphesis) is pending (Frick, Nentwig & Kropf, 2010); also the proposed synonymy of these five genera and of Minyriolus Simon, 1884 with Savignia by Breitling, 2021: 22 is not followed here, because it is based mainly on COI (see FAQ 7).
