Tecution
Tecution is a genus of spiders from Saint Helena within the family Cheiracanthiidae. They were first described and named by Benoit in 1977.[1][2] It was originally placed in the Clubionidae, but it was moved to Miturgidae in 1997, then to Cheiracanthiidae (syn. Eutichuridae) by Ramírez in 2014.[3] The genus consists of three species.
