Theumella is a genus of Ethiopian ground spiders that was first described by Embrik Strand in 1906.[2] As of June 2019[update] it contains only two species, found only in Ethiopia: T. penicillata and T. typica.[1] Originally placed with the long-spinneret ground spiders, it was transferred to the ground spiders in 2018.[3]
