The seven known species of Neocteniza are diagnosed and described; a male of the genus is reported for the first time. On the basis of shared derived characters it is concluded that the Actinopodidae and Migidae are sister groups and that of the three known genera of Actinopodidae, Actinopus and Missulena together constitute the sistergroup of Neocteniza. The genitalia of Neocteniza, particularly of the male, are of extraordinary complexity for mygalomorph spiders, and suggest that males can mate only once and females only once during each adult instar. Five new species are described: N.pococki from Venezuela, N.fantastica from Colombia, N.osa from Costa Rica, N. subirana from Honduras, and N. paucispina from Guatemala. Genitalic and somatic characters of the group are illustrated in detail for the first time.

The presence of an anterior labral spur is suggested to be synapomorphic for the Anapidae. Anapis is redefined to include those anapids with a procurved posterior eye row, medially excavate chelicerae bearing a distal plate, a ridged palpal conductor, and a recurved retrolateral apophysis on the male palpal patela; at least some species build orb webs. The genera Epecthina Simon and Epecthinula Simon are newly synonymized with Anapis. A key, diagnoses, and supplementary ilustrations are provided for the 21 known species, found from southern Mexico and Jamaica south to Peru and Brazil. Because more than half the species are known from only one sex, males and females were subjected to separate cladistic analyses; despite the availability of only an extremely small sample of characters, the resulting cladograms are compatible. A technique developed to combine the irinformation generated eight specific predictions about the morphology of unknown specimens that can serve as tests of the hypothesized relationships. Fifteen new species are described: A. heredia and A. monteverde from Costa Rica, A. anchicaya, A. saladito, A. calima, A. digua, A. felidia, A. atuncela, A. guasca, A. meta, and A. amazonas from Colombia, A. choroni from Venezuela, A. chiriboga from Ecuador, and A. castilla and A. caluga from Peru. Pseudanapis discoidalis Balogh and Loksa is transferred to Anapis. The male of A. keyserlingi Gertsch is described for the first time.

Anapisona is redefined to include those anapids with a single distal apophysis on the male palpal femur, a dorsally elongated male palpal tibia, and distal bristles on the cymbium; and Pseudanapis those with a coarsely punctate carapace and sternum, a pattern of two apophyses on the male palpal femur, one or two on the patella, and none on the tibia, and subequally long legs I and IV. Keys, diagnoses, and supplementary illustrations are provided for the 10 known species of Anapisona, found from southern Mexico and the lesser Antilles south to Ecuador and Brazil, and the six known species of Pseudanapis, found in Indonesia, New Guinea, Melanesia, Hawaii, Middle and South America, and Central Africa. The suggested synonymy of Pseudanapis with Chasmocephalon is disclaimed, but of the 18 species previously assigned to Pseudanapis only P. aloha and P. wilsoni are congeneric with the type species, P. paroculus (the remainder being more closely related to Chasmocephalon); true Pseudanapis are newly recorded from America and Africa. Eight new species are described: A. kethlyi from Mexico and Costa Rica, A. ashmolei and A. pecki from Ecuador, A. bordeaux from the Virgin Islands, A. aragua from Venezuela and Colombia, A. schuhi from Brazil, P. benoiti from Zaire, and P. domingo from Ecuador. Anapisona gertschi Forster is transferred to Pseudanapis and newly recorded from Costa Rica and Panama
