Phryganoporus
(after Gray 2002): Cribellate spiders. Body silvery grey to brown with light and dark brown patterning on abdomen. In solitary or communal webs. Separated from Badumna by the strong presence of white setae on the body; the possession on the male palp of a large, prolaterally directed, basal tegular bulge; extension of the conductor fold across to the retrolateral side of the bulb; and a basal retrolateral tibial apophysis. From Forsterina and Reinga by the prolateral origin of the embolus and the presence of a transverse epigynal ridge. From Namandia by the sinuous course of the embolus across the ventral bulb and the presence of fused paracribellar spigots on the PMS; and from Paramatachia by these characters plus the presence of a median apophysis.
