Amaurobiidae

Amaurobiidae is a family of three-clawed cribellate or ecribellate spiders found in crevices and hollows or under stones where they build retreats, and are often collected in pitfall traps. Unlidded burrows are sometimes quite obvious in crusty, loamy soil. They are difficult to distinguish from related spiders in other families, especially Agelenidae and Desidae. Their intra- and interfamilial relationships have been contentious.

Reorganization
This family has lost and gained several genera resulting from wide-ranging DNA analysis of spider families. It lost Bakala and Manjala to Desidae, while Toxopidae took in Midgee and the monotypic genus Jamara. It also lost some of Australia's medium-sized brown spiders including Tasmabrochus, Tasmarubrius, and Teeatta) to Macrobunidae, all of which are claimed to be common in Tasmania and mainland Australia but are rarely seen or recorded. The lack of research replicability and absence of photographic proof in species and genus diagnosis has resulted in low performance in computer recognition models and citizen science platforms for these genera. ==Genera==
Genera
, this family includes 27 genera. They are placed in four subfamilies, after Macrobuninae was elevated to a full family: Altellopsinae Lehtinen, 1967: • Altellopsis Simon, 1905 — Argentina • Neuquenia Mello-Leitão, 1940 — Argentina • Rhoicinaria Exline, 1950 — Colombia, Ecuador • Tugana Chamberlin, 1948 — Cuba • Yacolla Lehtinen, 1967 — Brazil Amaurobius erberi 469376237.jpg|Amaurobius erberi Callobius bennetti - Stan Rullman - 276972659.jpeg|Callobius bennetti Amaurobiinae Thorell, 1869: • Amaurobius C.
