Enoplognatha

provided by wikipedia EN

Enoplognatha is a genus of comb-footed spiders that was first described by P. Pavesi in 1880.[3] They have both a large colulus and a subspherical abdomen. Males usually have enlarged chelicerae. It is considered a senior synonym of Symopagia.[2]

Among the theridiids, they are medium to large sized. E. maricopa, a red-brown spider with a mottled purplish abdomen, has males that reach a length of 3.4 millimetres (0.13 in), and females that reach 2.9 millimetres (0.11 in). E. peruviana females can grow to 6.5 millimetres (0.26 in) long, and female E. zapfeae can grow to 9.2 millimetres (0.36 in).[4]

As of September 2019 it contains seventy-four species with a cosmopolitan distribution, including Greenland and Western Australia:[1]
