N.B.: considered a senior synonym of Blaniargus Simon, 1913: 365 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:05429] (type B. cupidon Simon, 1913) by Denis, 1950e: 248; Blaniargus was considered a senior synonym of Nothocyba Simon, 1926: 440, 517 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:05430] (type Erigone subaequalis Westring, 1851) by Denis, 1949a: 142); Nothocyba is an objective junior synonym of Plexisma Hull, 1920a: 10 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:04157] (type Erigone subaequalis Westring, 1851); Wunderlich's (1970: 406) synonymy of Micrargus with Ceratinopsis Emerton, 1882 has not been accepted by later authors.
