The current checklist documents 448 species from 81 genera & 6 families within the Lycosoidea group in India. There is a significant disparity in the male-to-female ratio, with 212 males compared to 415 females described. Among these six families, two are represented by more than 100 species: Thomisidae, with 41 genera & 177 species, & Lycosidae, with 20 genera & 132 species. Precinctive/ endemic spiders from the 06 families of the Lycosoidea group from India comprise of 301 species from 31 genera, thus, 38.27% of genera & 67.18% of species are endemic among the known spider species.
