Caponioidea

Caponia species

The Caponioidea or caponioids are a group of haplogyne araneomorph spiders that have been treated as superfamily with two members, the families Caponiidae and Tetrablemmidae.[1] Phylogenetic studies from 1991 onwards have shown that the group is not monophyletic, being composed of two basal members of a larger clade.[2][3] The precise members of that clade differ from study to study; one hypothesis is shown below.[3]

 Caponiidae
