gnaphosoids
Gnaphosoids are a superfamily of araneomorph spiders, commonly known as ground spiders or stealthy ground spiders. They are found in almost all regions of the world, with the highest diversity occurring in temperate and tropical areas. These spiders are characterized by their relatively stout bodies, flattened cephalothoraces, and the absence of a cribellum. They typically have eight eyes, arranged in a pattern that aids in their nocturnal hunting.
Gnaphosoids are primarily ground-dwelling spiders, living in leaf litter, under rocks, and in burrows. Many species
