On the identity of Metaconomma femorale (Opiliones: Laniatores) and its correct family placement

Abstract In this work, the holotype of Metaconomma femorale Pickard-Cambridge, 1905 was revised. As a result, the genus Metaconomma Pickard-Cambridge, 1905, a member of the infraorder Grassatores with uncertain family placement, is proposed as a junior synonym of Hoplobunus Banks, 1900 in Stygnopsidae, with the new combination Hoplobunus femoralis comb. nov.
