03B1B41DFF82E914FD95FD53FDB958CB.taxon	etymology	ETYMOLOGY: The generic name refers to the presence of the type species, previously misidentified as a member of Nops, in Cuba, and is masculine in gender.	en	Sánchez-Ruiz, Alexander, Platnick, Norman I., Dupérré, Nadine (2010): A New Genus of the Spider Family Caponiidae (Araneae, Haplogynae) from the West Indies.

03B1B41DFF82E914FD95FD53FDB958CB.taxon	diagnosis	DIAGNOSIS: Members of the genus can be separated from species of the previously known caponiid genera as follows: from the caponiine genera Caponia Simon (1887), Caponina Simon (1891), Diploglena Purcell (1904), Calponia Platnick (1993), Notnops Platnick (1994 b), Taintnops Platnick (1994 b), Tisentnops Platnick (1994 b), Laoponia Platnick and Jäger (2008), and Iraponia Kranz-Baltensperger et al. (2009) by the presence of subsegmented tarsi; from Nops MacLeay (1839) by having normal, rather than greatly elongated and dorsally reflexed, inferior claws; from Nopsides Chamberlin (1924) by the presence of only two eyes; from Orthonops Chamberlin (1924) and Tarsonops Chamberlin (1924) by having a distinctly patterned carapace, a widened labium, and bisegmented metatarsi IV; and from the similarly patterned Nyetnops Platnick and Lise (2007) by having a translucent ventral keel on the anterior metatarsi and a translucent extension of the membrane separating the anterior metatarsi and tarsi.	en	Sánchez-Ruiz, Alexander, Platnick, Norman I., Dupérré, Nadine (2010): A New Genus of the Spider Family Caponiidae (Araneae, Haplogynae) from the West Indies.
