Tapinocyba
sheet weavers
Tapinocyba is a genus of sheet web spiders (family Linyphiidae) established by Eugène Louis Simon in 1884. The genus comprises approximately 40 species distributed across the Nearctic and Palearctic regions, including Europe, Asia, North America, and North Africa. Species are primarily found in leaf litter and forest floor habitats, often at montane elevations. Recent taxonomic work has clarified species boundaries and described new species from previously undersampled regions such as China and Nepal.
