26, see text Chorizopes is a genus of orb-weaver spiders first described by O. Pickard-Cambridge in 1871.

[1] Though it belongs to the orb weaver family, these spiders move through leaf litter preying on other spiders rather than spinning webs.

[2] The original name was "Chorizoopes", but the emendation Chorizopes by Tamerlan Thorell is now protected by usage.

[3] As of April 2019[update] it contains twenty-six species, most from India and China, with several others found in locations ranging from Madagascar to Japan:[3] This Araneidae-related article is a stub.
