N.B.: considered a senior synonym of Artanes Thorell, 1869: 36 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:05635] (replacement name for Artamus C. L. Koch, 1837b: 27 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:05634] (preoccupied in Aves by Vieillot, 1816, type Aranea laevipes Linnaeus, 1758 = Philodromus margaritatus (Clerck, 1757)) and of Opitis L. Koch, 1875a: 611 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:05636] (type O. plana L. Koch, 1875) by Simon, 1895a: 1063; considered a senior synonym of Tibellomimus Gertsch, 1933b: 7 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:06179] (type T. lineatus Gertsch, 1933 = Philodromus bilineatus Bryant, 1933) by Roewer, 1955c: 786 (by synonymy and transfer of the type species); considered a senior synonym of Philodromoides Scheffer, 1904a: 305 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:05633] (type P. pratariae Scheffer, 1904) by Gertsch, in Schick, 1965: 37, 62 and of Horodromoides Gertsch, 1933b: 9 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:05632] (type H. validus Gertsch, 1933) by Dondale & Redner, 1975b: 370; Logunov, 1997b and Logunov & Kunt, 2010 followed Wunderlich in recognizing Artanes, but as Muster, 2009a demonstrated, this elevation of an automorphic species group would render Philodromus paraphyletic and is therefore here rejected (as it was also by Muster & Van Keer, 2010: 65); similarly, various genera and placements by Wunderlich, 2012a, including the erection of the new generic names Emargidromus Wunderlich, 2012a: 34 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:06177] (type Aranea emarginata Schrank, 1803), Philodromimus Wunderlich, 2012a: 36 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:06178] (type Philodromus dispar Walckenaer, 1826) and Pulchellodromus Wunderlich, 2012a: 38 as well as the validating of Tibellomimus by Wunderlich, 2012a: 40 were not accepted by Platnick and subsequent authors; Breitling, 2019b: 22 regarded Artanes, Emargidromus, Philodromimus, Pulchellodromus and Tibellomimus as subgenera of Philodromus (based mainly on COI, see FAQ 7); the generic status of Pulchellodromus was confirmed by Kastrygina & Kovblyuk, 2014: 28 and Rhysodromus Schick, 1965 was removed from the synonym by Kastrygina & Kovblyuk, 2016: 284 (contra Dondale & Redner, 1975b: 370-372).
