Domain: Eukaryota

Class: Arachnida
Order: Araneae
Infraorder: Araneomorphae
Family: Pholcidae
Genus: Kelabita
Huber, 2018 [1]
Type species
Pholcus andulau
(Huber, 2011)
Species
  • Kelabita andulau (Huber, 2011)
  • Kelabita lambir (Huber, 2016)

Kelabita is a small genus of southeast Asian cellar spiders. The genus was erected in 2018 for two species transferred from Pholcus after a molecular phylogenetic study of Pholcidae. [1] It is named after the Kelabit, an ethnic group native to Borneo. [1] They build domed webs up to 2 metres (6 ft 7 in) above the ground, and can be distinguished by unique sclerotization, including a partially sclerotized embolus. [2] As of April 2022 it contains only two species: K. andulau and K. lambir. [1]
