in 2014, hormiga and griswold reviewed the phylogeny of orb-weaving spiders, producing a summary based on what they considered to be the nine most comprehensive studies prior to their article. they concluded that there was limited evidence to group the cribellate uloboridae and deinopidae into a single taxon, deinopoidea. (deinopidae spin a small orb web, which they then cut loose and use as a net to catch prey.) there was strong evidence that a large group of ecribellate spiders formed the monophyletic araneoidea. this taxon includes spiders that make orb webs, but also many that do not. at first, there was support for two hypotheses for the relationship between these two groups. hormiga and griswold suggested a cladogram similar to the preferred version of blackledge et al.
