Английский
According to modern systematic (Natural History Museum Bern, 2016 & N. Yu. Kluge. Modern systematic of Insects. Part I. St-Petersburg "Lan`", 2000) the Family Theraphosidae falls into Order Aranea (or Araneus) and comprises itself 133 Genera, united in 11-15 Subfamilies [many authors consider Poecilotheriinae being not a valid subfamily taxon and thus belonging to Selenocosmiinae; two other subfamilies proposed in 2008-2010 by G. Schmidt - Psalmopoeinae (formerly Sinurticantinae) and Harpactirellinae, which are not listed here; some authors also considering genus Tapinauchenius belongs to Selenocosmiinae follow G. Schmidt) and recently a new subfamily Schismatothelinae proposed by Guadanucci J.P. (2014) - see notes below], include 970 spider species.

-----------------------------------------------------------
* At present most researchers consider this subfamily name is invalid and to include genus Acanthopelma into subfamily Ischnocolinae.
** According to not accepted by most researchers conception two genera - Psalmopoeus and Tapinauchenius was split into separate subfamily PSALMOPOEINAE SAMM & SCHMIDT, 2010. Hovewer, the papers were weak and had many mistakes as well as papers their're based on (Schmidt G. & Rudloff J.-P. (2003) и , and finally these changes did not accepted.
*** According to recent changes in 2015 the genus was considered a junior synonymy (), but it is still not fully accepted and officially WSC consider generic name Haplopelma as valid (See: ).
**** At presernt most researchers consider genus Poecilotheria into Selenocosmiinae subfamily as a thribe and not as a monotypical separate subfamily Poecilotheriinae.
***** In 2014 (was also proposed before by Schmidt, G. in 2005, but not accepted) it was finally removed from synonymy of genus Cyclosternum () and consider as valid genus. For now it is include tree species: Davus fasciatus O. Pickard-Cambridge, 1892, Davus mozinno Estrada-Alvarez, 2014 and Davus pentaloris (Simon, 1888).
