Fumontana is a monotypic genus of harvestman that occurs in the United States (North Carolina and Tennessee) with one described species, F. deprehendor.
==Biogeography== While members of the allied family Triaenonychidae are rather widespread globally, and well represented in Western North America, F. deprehendor is more recently considered part of the much smaller relict family Buemarinoidae Karaman, 2019, being the only species of this lineage found in the a few locations in the Eastern United States. The Appalachian millipede genus Choctella shows a similar distribution, suggesting they both stem from the same Gondwanan fauna.
