Taxonomic History

2023
Cymbiapophysa seldeni Sherwood & Gabriel, 2023, Arachnology 19: 777-779.
Transferred to Cyclosternum by Peñaherrera-R. & Guayasamin (2025), together with C. matildeae, on the same grounds: their phylogeny recovers both inside Cyclosternum, and neither has the characters that support membership of Cymbiapophysa.
