Examples
- The arthropod genus Solifugae consists of solifuges, or sun spiders, which are often confused with scorpions or spiders due to their elongated bodies.
- Biologists have identified several arthropod genus classifications within the phylum Arthropoda, including the genus Latrodectus, comprising venomous spider species.
- Araneus is a widespread arthropod genus comprising more than 650 unique species of orb-weaver spiders worldwide.
- Some arthropod genus classifications are outdated, resulting in old genus categorizations, such as genus Brontoscorpio, which housed false scorpions now grouped in the phylum Arthropoda.
- Urodontidae, an extinct arthropod genus found during the Paleozoic Era, belonged to the subphylum Chelicerata, consisting of mostly arachnid arthropods.
