Tylorida striata is a species of spider in the family Tetragnathidae. It was first described by Tamerlan Thorell in 1877.[1] The species has a wide distribution across tropical Asia and northern Australia.
T. striata was originally described as Meta striata by Thorell in 1877 based on a female specimen.[2] The species has undergone numerous taxonomic revisions and has accumulated several synonyms over time. Notable synonymizations include Tylorida magniventer (Bösenberg & Strand, 1906), which was synonymized by Tanikawa in 2005,[3] and Sternospina concretipalpis (Schmidt & Krause, 1993), which was synonymized by Dimitrov et al. in 2008.[4]
Most recently, Sankaran et al. (2017) synonymized Tylorida nicobarensis, which had been transferred from the genus Linyphia by Breitling in 2015.[5]
