Abstract
"The tribal grouping Microstigmateae Roewer is removed from the Dipluridae and elevated to familial rank. The subfamily Pseudonemesiinae Caporiacco is transferred from the Ctenizidae to the Microstigmatidae. The family is suggested to be the sister group of the Mecicobothriidae plus Hexalethidae and Dipluridae. The male of the Venezuelan species Pseudonemesia parva Caporiacco is descibed for the first time, and a new species, P. kochalkai, is described from Colombia. A genus (Ministigmata) described for a new species (M. minuta) from Brazil is hypothesized to be more closely related to the South African genus Microstigmata than to Pseudonemesia"--P. [1].
