Ochyroceratidae (Spider)

Wikipedia Abstract

Ochyroceratidae is a six-eyed spider family, with 154 described species in 14 genera. Ochyroceratids are common inhabitants of the tropical forest litter and caves in South Africa, the Caribbean and Asia, especially species rich in the Indo-Pacific, where they constitute one of the ecological counterparts of the Linyphiidae of the northern temperate zone. At least one species in the genus Theotima (the only 0.9mm long T. minutissima) was shown to be parthenogenetic.
