Theridiidae Checklist: Comb-Footed Spiders

on
28 February 2021

Comb-footed spiders from the family Theridiidae Sundevall, 1833 are small spiders, but it is one of the largest family of spiders living in tree canopies. The “comb”, or serrated bristles on tarsi IV gives the spiders in this family its common name. While some theridiids construct three-dimensional webs or cob webs, several genera do not build webs at all.

Checklist

This page consists of a personal checklist of all Comb-Footed Spiders (Theridiidae) that I’ve encountered over the years. Please do not assume the identification of a spider simply based on the photographs here as identification is usually based on the examination of minute parts of the spider such as the genitalia. Even experts may not be able to identify accurately based on photos alone.

All photos are of live subjects shot in the field, with the dorsal view selected where available. Click on individual photos for larger views and views from other angles. As most specimens were not collected, identifications were done purely based on photographs and may not be 100% accurate.

This page will be updated regularly, please let me know if you spot any mistakes.
