Gen.
Emertonius G. W. Peckham & E. G. Peckham, 1892 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:04454 ]
N.B. Considered a junior synonym of Myrmarachne MacLeay, 1839 by Wanless, 1978b: 235 (for an alternate view, see Prószyński & Deeleman-Reinhold, 2010: 162 but also Edwards, 2013a: 4); revalidation of Emertonius by Prószyński, 2016 was not accepted, because the rejection of Edwards, 2013a was not taken into account; synonymy finally rejected by Prószyński, 2018b: 165.
