Cyclocosmia
Cyclocosmia is a genus of mygalomorph trapdoor spiders in the family Halonoproctidae, first described by Anton Ausserer in 1871. Originally placed with the Ctenizidae, when the family split in 2018, this genus was placed with the Halonoproctidae as the type genus. The name is derived from the Greek "kyklos" (), meaning "circle", and "kosmeo" (), meaning "to adorn".
Halonoproctidae
Halonoproctidae is a family of mygalomorph spiders, split off from the family Ctenizidae in 2018. Species in the family are widely distributed in North and Central America, Australasia, Asia, southern Europe and North Africa. One species is recorded from Venezuela in South America. They are relatively large, sombrely coloured spiders, that live in burrows with some kind of trapdoor.

Latouchia

The genus is presumably named in honour of John David Digues La Touche (who is named as "J. de La Touche" alongside "C. B. Rickett") as co-collector of the first described species Latouchia fossoria.
