(types species O. vachoni sp. n.) is related to Baloorthochirus Kovařík, 1996, and Pakistanorthochirus Lourenco, 1997, from Pakistan; Birulatus Vachon, 1974, from Jordan: Butheolus Simon, 1882, from Arabia; Orthochirus Karsch, 1892, from north Afrika and Arabia to India; and Paraorthochirus Lourenco & Vachon, 1995, from Iran.
