Glycyphagus

Glycyphagus is a genus of Astigmatina in the family Glycyphagidae.

== Description == In adults of Glycyphagus, the prodorsum lacks external vertical setae ve. The internal vertical setae vi are long and barbed, and located posterior to the anterior margin of the propodosoma. The scapular setae si and se are arranged in a trapezoid or rectangle shape. In some species, there is a prodorsal sclerotization called a crista metopica. Some of the dorsal setae are long and heavily barbed. On the ventral side of the body, the subcapitulum has a distinct pattern of ventral ridges, and near the posterior margin of the body is the anus. The tibiae of the first two leg pairs have two ventral setae each. The tarsal claws are simple and small. Members of subgenus Lepidoglyphus have subtarsal scales on the legs.
