Paintings of Araneus angulatus from Svenska Spindlar of 1757, the first major work on spider taxonomy. Spider taxonomy is the part of taxonomy that is concerned with the science of naming, defining and classifying all spiders, members of the Araneae order of the arthropod class Arachnida, which has more than 48,500 described species.

Palpigrades belong to the arachnid class. [3] They are the sister group to Solifugae , [ 4 ] no more than 3 millimetres (0.12 in) in length, [ 3 ] and averaging 1–1.5 mm (0.04–0.06 in). [ 5 ] They have a thin, pale, segmented integument , and a segmented abdomen that terminates in a whip-like flagellum.
It is the only supra-ordinal group of arachnids that is strongly supported in molecular phylogenetic studies. [1] Two extinct orders are also placed in this clade, Haptopoda and Uraraneida. [2] In 2016, a newly described fossil arachnid, Idmonarachne, was also included in the Tetrapulmonata; as of March 2016 it has not been assigned to an order.
