Cryptachaea is a genus of spiders in the Theridiidae (tangle web spider) family.[1]
Taxonomy
Many species in this genus used to reside in Achaearanea,[1] which received a major revision in 2008 by Hajime Yoshida.[2] The genus was originally established as a subgenus of Theridion.[1][2]
Distribution
This is mostly a New World genus, with many species in South America. One species is cosmopolitan, one species occurs in the whole Palearctic, another only in China .[1] C. veruculata was introduced to Europe from New Zealand.
Name
The genus name is a combination of Achaea, the old name of the genus Achaearanea, and Ancient Greek κρυπτός "hidden". The genus is called Iwama-himegumo zoku in Japanese.[2]
