Popis: Genus Cunaxa Von Heyden, 1826 Generic diagnosis. Five���segmented pedipalps with at most distal half of tibiae overstepping subcapitulum. Femora bearing simple dorsolateral setae, telofemora with or without apophysis, palps with or without stout spine-like seta on genua and tibiotarsi. Subcapitulum smooth or patterned (dotted, basal part sometimes with subcuticular reticulation), bears 2 pairs of adoral and 4 pairs of subcapitular setae (hg 1 ��� hg 4 ). Dorsal proterosomal shield complemented with two pairs of sensillae (at, pt) and two pairs of simple sete (lps, mps). Dorsal hysterosoma with or without shield, setae c 1 ���h 1 and c 2 present, lateral hysterosomal platelets absent, dorsal shields never reticulated. Setae h 2 obviously not visible from dorsal side. Coxal plates I���II and III���IV on ventral idiosoma may be fused, coxal II���IV setal formula 1-3-2. Genital area with 2 pairs of genital papillae, each genital plate with 4 setae. Anal plates bear 1 pair of setae (ps 1 ). Striated ventral integument between coxae and genital region with up to 7 pairs of additional setae. Legs with small tarsal lobes, ambulacral claws and 4���rayed empodia. Tibia IV with long slender trichobothrium. More details on generic features of Cunaxa are shown in Smiley (1992) and Skvarla et al. (2014). According to the recent taxonomic review oif Cunaxivae (Skvarla et al. 2014), 13 species formerly treated as Cunaxa species, Cunaxa boneti (Baker & Hoffmann, 1948), C. denmarki (Smiley, 1992), C. exoterica (Tseng, 1980), C. floridanus (Smiley, 1992), C. lehmanae (Smiley, 1992), C. lukoschusi (Smiley, 1992), C. metzi (Smiley, 1992), C. myabunderensis (Gupta & Ghosh, 1980), C. newyorkensis (Smiley, 1992), C. rackae (Smiley, 1992), C. reevesi (Smiley, 1992), C. reticulatus (Bashir, Afzal & Ali, 2005), C. venusae (Corpuz-Raros & Garc��a, 1995) and C. viscayana (Corpuz-Raros & Garc��a, 1995), were moved to Rubroscirus (Den Heyer 2011). Three species, Cunaxa otiosus (Muhammad & Chaudri, 1993), C. rasile (Muhammad & Chaudri, 1993) and C. valentis (Muhammad, Chaudri & Akbar, 1989), originally described in the content of Rubroscirus were returned to that genus as they possess reticulated dorsal plates instead of smooth as in Cunaxa.
