Subfamily Archepyginae Manfredi, 1939

The taxon Archepyginae corresponds to Odontopyginae sensu Kraus (1960, 1966), see Hoffman (1991), and includes those odontopygid genera in which the gonopod telopodite has a flexible, mostly spiralled zone (torsotope sensu Hoffman 2008) followed by a delimited, usually narrower zone (“Femur” sensu Kraus 1960, 1968).
