Naming
The higher classification of Opiliones is still being discussed. European workers (around Dr, Martens) will have the Sclerosomatidae as a very small family (in Europe only including Mastobunus) and will put many other genera in a much broader concept op Phalangiidae. New world workers will generally include many other genera in a broader concept of Sclerosomatidae.The English language Wikipedia seems to mostly follow American insights and as our species descriptions are parsed from that wiki, for practical reasons Astrobunus will be classified as Sclerosomatidae here, without endorsing the one view or the other.
