Type species. Capheris crassimana (Simon, 1877) View in CoL , by subsequent designation.
Diagnosis. Capheris species are very similar to those of Cydrela in habitus and genitalic morphology, but can be distinguished from those of Cydrela by profile of carapace without deep concavity at level of fovea (vs. present in Cydrela ), the ALEs are situated in front of the AMEs, touching each other or almost separated by their radius (vs. distinctly separated by more than their radius in Cydrela ), PER straight or slightly curved in dorsal view (vs. curved in Cydrela ), sternum triangular or shield-shaped, usually wider than long (vs. usually slightly longer than wide in Cydrela ), sternum anterolaterally with deep indentations accommodating the endites (vs. almost straight or with small indentations in Cydrela ), sternum with precoxal sclerites (vs. absent in Cydrela ), and very stout palp as large or larger than leg femora (vs. normal and not enlarged in Cydrela ) ( Jocqué 1991, 2009; Henrard 2019, PhD Thesis). For a description of the genus, see Jocqué (1991, 2009).
