Enoplognatha

Enoplognatha is a genus of comb-footed spiders first described by P. Pavesi in 1880. They were characterized by both a large colulus and a subspherical abdomen, with males usually have enlarged chelicerae. It is considered a senior synonym of Symopagia.

Among the theridiids, they are medium to large sized. E. maricopa, a red-brown spider with a mottled purplish abdomen, has males that can reach a length of 3.4 millimetres (0.13 in), while females typically reach 2.9 millimetres (0.11 in). E. peruviana females can grow to 6.5 millimetres (0.26 in) long, and female E. zapfeae can reach up to 9.2 millimetres (0.36 in).
