Family: Araneidae Clerck, 1757 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spiderfam:0102] Detail
Gen. Scoloderus Simon, 1887 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:01557] Detail
type Hypophthalma cordata Taczanowski, 1879; gender masculine
N.B: even though Simon, 1887d: 187 was wrong in stating a preoccupation of Hypophthalma, he used a different type species, which originally was not included in Hypophthalma (see Hypognatha).
Transferred to other genera:
Scoloderus soaresi Mello-Leitão, 1945 -- see Testudinaria
