''Cycloctenus'' is a genus of Australasian araneomorph spiders in the family Cycloctenidae, first described by L. Koch in 1878.

Orepukia
''Orepukia'' is a genus of South Pacific araneomorph spiders in the family Cycloctenidae, known only from New Zealand. First described by Raymond Robert Forster & C. L. Wilton in 1973, it was originally placed in Agelenidae, but was transferred to Cycloctenidae in 2017. Their webs are built on the ground between fallen branches, logs, and other debris, and they are commonly found on the South Island, but hardly ever anywhere else. They range in size from and lack a cribellum.

Pacificana
''Pacificana'' is a genus of spiders in the family Cycloctenidae. It was first described in 1904 by Hogg. , it contains only one species, ''Pacificana cockayni'' (Pacific Bounty hunter), found only on the Bounty Islands I Moutere Hauriri in New Zealand. Taxonomy Both the genus and species were described in 1904 by Henry Roughton Hogg from a subadult male and several female specimens. A female syntype specimen is stored in Otago Museum.Forster, R. R. (1955c)Spiders from the subantarctic islands of New Zealand ''Records of the Dominion Museum, Wellington'' 2: 167-203 with the remainder assumed to be in the Natural History Museum, London. A lack of distinctive characters meant this species has been difficult to assign to a family. First described in Agelenidae it was later transferred to Amaurobioididae (now Anyphaeneidae) and Miturgidae before a combination of morphological data (including the description of the male) and molecular analysis allowed it be placed in Cycloctenid ...

Eugène Simon
Eugène Louis Simon (; 30 April 1848 – 17 November 1924) was a French naturalist who worked particularly on insects and spiders, but also on birds and plants. He is by far the most prolific spider Taxonomy (biology), taxonomist in history, describing over 4,000 species. Work on spiders His most significant work was ''Histoire Naturelle des Araignées'' (1892–1903), an encyclopedic treatment of the spider genera of the world. It was published in two volumes of more than 1000 pages each, and the same number of drawings by Simon. Working at the National Museum of Natural History (France), Muséum National d'Histoire Naturelle in Paris, it took Simon 11 years to complete, while working at the same time on devising a taxonomic scheme that embraced the known taxa. Simon described a total of 4,650 species, and as of 2013 about 3,790 species are still considered valid. The International Society of Arachnology offers a Simon Award recognising lifetime achievement. The Eocene fos ...
