type Brachionopus robustus Pocock, 1897; gender masculine
N.B.: transferred from the Barychelidae to the Theraphosidae by
Raven, 1985a: 112;
Brachyonopus is an unjustified emendation; Raven's transfer was not accepted by
Charpentier, 1993: 5 or
Schmidt, 2002a: 12 and
2008: 3, who nevertheless identified no close relatives of the genus among the known barychelids;
Gallon, 2002: 204 argued for its inclusion in the Barychelidae but indicated that it "does not fit in any current barychelid subfamily" but later (
Gallon, 2010b: 79) considered it a harpactirine.
