N.B.: the synonymy with Savignia Blackwall, 1833, proposed by Breitling, 2021: 22, was not followed here, as based mainly on COI (see FAQ 7); the validity of Diplocephalus is confirmed by Frick, Sanz-LaParra & Kropf, 2026: 104; considered a senior synonym of Prosoponcus Simon, 1884a: 569 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:05362] (type Walckenaeria cristatus Blackwall, 1833) by Simon, 1894a: 656; considered a senior synonym of Plaesiocraerus Simon, 1884a: 745 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:05364] (type Walckenaera latifrons O. Pickard-Cambridge, 1863) (itself not a senior synonym of Monocephalus Smith, 1906), of Streptosphaenus Simon, 1926: 384, 497 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:05365] (type Diplocephalus adjacens O. Pickard-Cambridge, 1903 = D. connatus Bertkau, 1889) by Denis, 1949a: 140, of Chocorua Crosby & Bishop, 1933b: 164 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:05363] (type Lophocarenum cuneatum Emerton, 1909 = Diplocephalus subrostratus (O. Pickard-Cambridge, 1873)) by Hackman, 1954: 28 and of Hemistajus Schenkel, 1934 (revalidated by Frick, Sanz-LaParra & Kropf, 2026: 114) by Thaler, 1970: 256.
