Haplogynae
Sign in to savethumb|Pholcus phalangioides The Haplogynae or haplogynes are one of the two main groups into which araneomorph spiders have traditionally been divided, the other being the Entelegynae. Morphological phylogenetic studies suggested that the Haplogynae formed a clade; more recent molecular phylogenetic studies refute this, although many of the ecribellate haplogynes do appear to form a clade, Synspermiata.

Unlike the Entelegynae, haplogynes lack hardened (sclerotized) female genitalia (epigynes).
