Physoglenidae

Physoglenidae is a family of araneomorph spiders first described by Alexander Petrunkevitch in 1928 as a subfamily of Pholcidae.[1] It was later moved to Synotaxidae[2] until a study in 2016 showed that they formed a distinct clade.[3]

As of April 2019, the World Spider Catalog accepts the following genera:[4]

gollark: Well, moderately easily.
gollark: Oh, wait, I could actually make it work fairly easily.
gollark: I had a DNS to IRC and DNS to comment bridge (unidirectional because streaming would be very hard).
gollark: This is canon.
gollark: Web4 is webrings, moderately surreal content, stretched Euler faces for some reason, hackily bridged IRC and XMPP servers, and overly colourful landing pages.
