Hexablemma
Genus of spiders
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hexablemma is a monotypic genus of araneomorph spiders in the family Tetrablemmidae containing the single species, Hexablemma cataphractum. It was first described by Lucien Berland in 1920 from a female found in Kenya.[2] It was separated from Tetrablemma in 1978 for this single species,[3] because it does not belong there, but does not seem to belong anywhere else either.[1][4]
