Three different types of the names used in spider systematics are
recognized and discussed: 1) typified taxonomic names, 2) non-typified
taxonomic names, and 3) non-taxonomic names. Typified names are those
from genus to superfamily group names; they are regulated by the ICZN.
Non-typified names are used for taxonomic groups higher than
superfamilies (e.g., Haplogynae, Mesothelae, etc.); they are not
regulated by the ICZN but have an authorship, a fixed year of
publication and are incorporated in a hierarchical classification.
Non-taxonomic names are not regulated by any formal rules, unranked,
have no authorship or description, and are non-typified. Some
difficulties connected with the non-typified names in spider systematics
are briefly discussed. Senior synonyms of some non-typified and
non-taxonomic names are discussed, and suggestions are given on how to
deal with the non-typified names lacking senior synonyms.
