Anapidae is a family of rather small spiders with 154 described species in 36 genera. Alternatively the family may include Micropholcommatidae as the subfamily Micropholcommatinae, with a further 66 species and 19 genera. Most species are less than 2 mm long. In some species (such as Pseudanapis parocula) the pedipalps of the female are reduced to coxal stumps. Anapidae generally live in leaf litter and moss on the floor of rain forest. Many build orb webs with a diameter of less than 3 cm.
