Subgenus Erythraeus (Zaracarus) Southcott

Type species: E. (Z.) lancifer Southcott, 1995: 223 .

The subgenus Zaracarus can easily be recognized by the following combination of characters: antero- lateral setae (AL) with or without expansion basally but tapered distally ( Goldarazena, A. & Zhang, Z.Q. 1998); AL longer than postero-lateral scutal setae (PL); scutum oval or trapezoid; dorsal idiosomal setae thicker than opisthogastral setae; anterior sensilla (AM) are situated in obliquely-set sockets with cuticular structures (Haitlinger, 1998). These sockets are absent in all the species of the subgenus Erythraeus s.str.
