Abstract
There are 199 genus-group names available in the arachnid Order Solifugae Sundevall, 1833 by the end of 2025. Of these, 152 refer to currently accepted extant genera (146, including five subgenera elevated to the rank of genus) and extinct genera (6). A new generic synonym, presented herein, raises to 47 the number of genus-group names in synonymy. Thirty (20%) of the currently accepted genus-group names were described since 1950. Solifugae includes 1202 currently accepted species-group names (1196 extant species, including 37 extant subspecies elevated to the rank of species herein, and six extinct species) and 16 nomina dubia. Despite this descriptive activity, the suprageneric phylogeny and classification of the order remain poorly understood.
