Type species. Atelurius segmentatus Simon, 1901, by original designation.

Revised diagnosis. Males of Atelurius can be identified by the short RvTA, totally covered by denticles (Figs 61– 62). Males of Atelurius differ from those of Scoturius and Urupuyu by not having a bilobed RTA; differ from those of Hurius and Simonurius by having a sub-triangular RTA. Males of Atelurius differ from those of Admesturius by having a longer embolus and shorter RvTA. Females of Atelurius differ from those of other huriines by having longer copulatory ducts with the proximal section membranous (Fig. 48) and poorly differentiated spermathecae.
