[edit] Disputed and unclassified genera

The placement of the following genera within subfamilies is presently disputed within the zoology community, or is pending further research.

[edit] Aenigmarachne

Aenigmarachne Schmidt, 2005. A recently-described genus, no placement into a sub-family recorded in the literature.

[edit] Brachionopus

Brachionopus Pocock, 1897. Dollar has recently propsed transferring this genus to the family Barychelidae; a proposal which is still disputed. [1].

[edit] Cardiopelma

Cardiopelma Vol, 1999. A genus described by Fabian Vol in 1999, but which has little record in the scientific literature; often placed in sub-family Theraphosinae.

[edit] Proshapalopus

Proshapalopus Mello-Leitão, 1923. This has been placed in several different sub-families by several different arachnologists.
