01Narrative

The genus Selenotypus includes one of the largest of Australia's theraphosids.Dessen, Ben, et al. "AUSTRALIAN INVERTEBRATE." (2008). At present, the only recognised species within this genus is Selenotypus plumipes,Pocock, R. I. (1895a). On a new and natural grouping of some of the Oriental genera of Mygalomorphae, with descriptions of new genera and species. Annals and Magazine of Natural History (6) 15: 165-184. but this is expected to change, as it is becoming apparent that the genus has a wide distribution, and at present Australian theraphosids as a whole are poorly classified.

No narrative description available for this taxon yet.
