This paper contains keys to the 65 genera of araneid spiders known from the Americas.\ These genera hold approximately fifteen hundred species found in the Americas. The key to females uses\ mostly artificial characters; the key to males uses diagnostic characters. There are four new synonyms and\ two new placements.

Five species of Cyclosa, three of Metazygia and thirteen of Eustala are found in the region. One species of Cyclosa is holarctic in distribution, others are temperate and tropical American. The rarity of the dwarf males of the tropical
Florida Cyclosa bifurca suggests that the species\ may be parthenogenetic. Metazygia and Eustala are known from the Americas only, most species\ being tropical. The five temperate species of Eustala, especially the three eastern ones, are difficult\ to separate; possibly they hybridize in some areas. Two of the Eustala species are new, with the range of southern Florida and the West Indies.

Fifty-one neotropical and Mexican species of Cyclosa were identified, of which 38 are new. Twelve names have been newly synonymized. The neotropical Cyclosa species all have genitalia similar to those of North American C. caroli, C. turbinata\ and C. walckenaeri. In all females, the epigynum is lightly sclerotized, with openings and sculpturing difficult to see. In most males, the diagnostic palpal features are hidden: the conductor tooth is behind a flap, and the median apophysis is partly hidden below the large conductor of the palpus. A new genus, Allocyclosa, has been established for C. bifurca. Synapomorphies place Cyclosa close to Metazygia, but Allocyclosa is similar to Cyrtophora in body shape. It differs from Cyrtophora in structure of genitalia and in making a Cyclosa-like web.
