Although the body of these animals is greatly flattened, as is characteristic of both trochanteriids and hemicloeine gnaphosids, the new genus belongs to neither of those groups but rather to the subfamily Lamponinae, and thus represents a third lineage of Australian gnaphosoids that has acquired a greatly flattened habitus.363135 bytesapplication/pdfen-USQL1 .A436 no.3462 2004Platylampona mazeppaLamponidaeSpiders -- Australia -- QueenslandSpiders -- Australia -- New South WalesArachnida -- Australia -- QueenslandArachnida -- Australia -- New South WalesOn a third group of flattened ground spiders from Australia (Araneae, Lamponidae).
