Trachelidae

Trachelidae is a family of araneomorph spiders first described by Eugène Simon in 1897 as a subfamily called "Tracheleae" ("Trachelinae" in modern terminology).[2] It was placed in the family Clubionidae, then later in Corinnidae when the Clubionidae were split up. An analysis by Martín J. Ramírez in 2014 suggested that it was not closely related to other members of the Corinnidae, and was better treated as a separate family.[3]

Not to be confused with Trechaleidae.

gollark: Sure, at some point?
gollark: Either that or I'm secretly just a bot.
gollark: I *can* talk, but with horrible noise, and I don't particularly want to now anyway.
gollark: I only have my laptop's internal microphone, which is, apparently, not very good.
gollark: Yep.
