Cybaeus is a genus of araneomorph spiders in the family Cybaeidae, first described by Ludwig Carl Christian Koch in 1868.[2] It is found in America, Europe, Japan, Korea and China.[1] Females of different species are difficult to distinguish, especially in North America. Images of males that include pedipalps are the easiest to determine species.[3]

Species

As of March 2019 it contains 157 species:[1]
