Notes.
The taxonomy of the South African species belonging to the
Areneidae
is confused as a result of the lumping of species under a broadly interpreted
Cinysca dunkeri
.
They are currently being revised by Bruce
Marshall
, based on a manuscript by James H. McLean, and substantial changes are to be expected.
