CATALOGUE OF SALTICIDAE (ARANEAE) synthesis of quotations in the world literature since 1757 [Version May, 2006] Acknowledgemen, this page benefited greatly from comparison with Platnick's World Spider Catalogue 2005 Internet version 6.5 <http://research.amnh.org/entomology/spiders/catalog/SALTICIDAE.html>.
Gen. Thyene Simon, 1885
type: imperialis
T. Simon, 1885c: 4 (nom. nov. pro Thya - preocc.)
NB. The generic name Thyene Simon, 1885 (Arachnida, Araneae) is given precedence over Mithion Simon, 1884 by the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature whenever the two names are considered to be synonyms [Opinion, Case 1625, 1991. Bull. Zool. Nomencl., 48 (1): 69-70]. Thyene is to be used for all species considered congeneric with type species, t imperialis. Name Mithion Simon, 1884 can be used provisionally for 6 species "incertae sedis", pending taxonomic revision, until eventually reclassified elsewhere. J. Proszynski.
