Type species: Copa flavoplumosa Simon, 1885 , by monotypy.

Diagnosis. Recognised from other cryptic lycosiform Castianeirinae by the presence of fine proximal and distal dorsal setae on the anterior patellae and proximal and distal spines on the posterior patellae that are clearly shorter than the particular leg segment. Additionally, the AME are ca. 1.25-1.50 times ALE diameter and the carapace is typically 3.30-3.75 times broader than PER ( Haddad, 2013).
