611787B9FFAFFFFEFDD8B6ECFB1EFA08.taxon	diagnosis	DIAGNOSIS: Members of this genus have notably elongated, ventrally spinose patellae on leg I (figs. 17, 37), a feature that is shared with a group of undescribed genera from West Africa. The males assigned below to Triaeris can easily be separated from those of the undescribed groups by several unique modifications, including the leaf-shaped setae on the palpal patella (figs. 74, 107), the enlarged, subdistal seta on the labium (figs. 70, 86), and the pair of enlarged setae near the anterolateral corners of the sternum (figs. 70, 89, 90, 126); they also differ in having a simple embolus without accessory structures (figs. 73, 105). The females assigned below to Triaeris show a wide range of genitalic structures, but differ from those of the undescribed genera in having hypertrophied posterior genitalic elements, which occupy most of the postepigastric scutal area and involve external modifications of that scutum (figs. 31, 32). The notably elongated seta found in both sexes on the anterior surface of each cheliceral paturon (figs. 4, 6, 83, 84, 110, 111) may also be unique to Triaeris. GENDER: The gender of the name Triaeris has been controversial; Bonnet (1959), for example, regarded the name as masculine. That view was disputed by Brignoli (1974: 209), who indicated that: Some doubt may arise concerning the genus [sic, lapsus for gender] to be attributed to the name Triaeris; in my opinion, the etymology is clear: Tris + aeris i. e. “ with three parts of copper ”; in practice, an apposition. Berland has taken it as masculine and has described T. macrophthalmus; according to me, by analogy with other names again created by Simon, such as Xestaspis, Anasaspis, Coryssocnemis, etc., it sounds better in the feminine (the noun aranea being understood). Our colleague H. Don Cameron has kindly indicated that Brignoli’s etymology is erroneous, reflecting an accidental similarity. Simon consistently followed a 19 th-century grammar school convention to differentiate a long “ e ” from a short “ e ” by spelling the long “ e ” as “ ae. ” To distinguish the Latin words levis (“ light, ” short e) from lēvis (“ smooth, ” long e), for example, Simon spelled smooth as laevis. Thus, Triaeris is properly spelled Triēris in standard Latin (and without the macron, to accord with the Code, Trieris). Simon’s original spelling of the generic name is of course protected by the Code, but the gender is determined by the correct Latin spelling. The word triēris is a two-ending Latin adjective meaning “ having three banks of oars ” (e. g., the spelling is triēris for masculine or feminine, triēre for neuter). Simon’s type species, T. stenaspis, does not solve the problem since stenaspis is also a two-ending adjective (meaning “ having a narrow carapace ”). So Triaeris should be treated as masculine under ICZN Art. 30.1.4.2, which specifies masculine as the default gender in such cases.	en	Platnick, Norman I., Dupérré, Nadine, Ubick, Darrell, Fannes, Wouter (2012): Got Males?: The Enigmatic Goblin Spider Genus Triaeris (Araneae, Oonopidae).

611787B9FFAFFFFEFDD8B6ECFB1EFA08.taxon	distribution	DISTRIBUTION: Aside from the pantropical type species, the genus is known only from West Africa. INCLUDED SPECIES: Of the various names currently assigned to Triaeris (see Platnick, 2012, for a listing), only T. stenaspis and its synonyms actually belong to the genus. Of the other African species, T. equestris (from Príncipe) belongs to a different genus in the Triaeris subgroup, whereas T. macrophthalmus (from Kenya and Zanzibar) belongs to a different genus in the Zyngoonops group. The various taxa from outside of Africa are wildly misplaced.	en	Platnick, Norman I., Dupérré, Nadine, Ubick, Darrell, Fannes, Wouter (2012): Got Males?: The Enigmatic Goblin Spider Genus Triaeris (Araneae, Oonopidae).
