Nanometa
Nanometa is a monotypic genus of Western Australian long-jawed orb-weavers containing the single species, Nanometa gentilis. It was first described by Eugène Louis Simon based on a female found in 1908.[2][1] It is included in a clade of its own defined by nine morphological synapomorphies, along with Eryciniolia and Orsinome.[3]
