Monographic Research in Araneoid Spider SystematicsAn NSF-PEET sponsored research project (Pls G. Hormiga and J. Coddington). Monographic Research in Araneoid Spider Systematics is a new web page produced through collaboration between the labs of Jonathan Coddington at the National Museum of Natural History and Gustavo Hormiga at the George Washington University with funding through the PEET program of the National Science Foundation. It concerns three monographs which will be produced by Ph.D. candidats. The three projects concern 1) Neotropical erigonines, 2) a revision of the genus Anelosimus and with a study of phylogenetic relationships among theridiids, and 3) the Nephilinae of the world (USA) 11/22/03
