Gen. Sphecozone O. Pickard-Cambridge, 1871 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:01278 ]
N.B.: considered a senior synonym of Hypselistoides Tullgren, 1901b: 202 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:05456] (type H. affinis Tullgren, 1901 = Sphecozone bicolor (Nicolet, 1849)) by Millidge, 1985: 66, of Brattia Simon, 1894a: 673 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:00870] (type B. spadicaria Simon, 1894) by Miller, 2004: 529, and of Clitolyna Simon, 1894a: 673 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:00902] (type Erigone fastibilis Keyserling, 1886) and Gymnocymbium Millidge, 1991: 184 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:01001] (type G. grave Millidge, 1991) by Miller, 2007a: 185-186; not a senior synonym of Ceratinella Emerton, 1882 or Ceratinopsis Emerton, 1882 (Millidge, 1991: 165, contra Wunderlich, 1987a: 170); synonymy of Clitolyna doubted but not rejected by Dupérré & Harms, 2018: 8 (Clitolyna should rather be placed in Dictynidae).
