Kwonkan

Kwonkan is a genus of Australian mygalomorph spiders first described by Barbara York Main in 1983. It was originally assigned to Dipluridae, but was later assigned to Nemesiidae due to similarities to the genus Aname, before being transferred to the family Anamidae in 2010. The known distribution of described species in the genus is restricted to the states of South Australia (SA) and Western Australia (WA). Yilgarnia is now considered a synonym for this genus, and its type species is assigned to Kwonkan currycomboides.
