Aname L. Koch, 1873 è un genere di ragni migalomorfi appartenente alla famiglia delle Anamidae e descritta per la prima volta da Ludwig Carl Christian Koch nel 1873.

Caratteristiche

Questi ragni sono noti, insieme a quelli dei generi Chenistonia e Namea, come "ragni a forcella", a causa della forma particolare della loro tana sotterranea. La forma della tana ricorda molto quella di una Y. Dei due bracci verso l'alto, solo uno raggiunge la superficie; l'altro, probabilmente, è utile in caso di inondazione, in quanto consente al ragno di rifugiarvisi intrappolandovi una bolla d'aria.

Distribuzione

Sono diffusi in Australia occidentale e meridionale. Una specie è stata rinvenuta in Tasmania.
