Merge
As it's the only species, the article at Macracantha arcuata needs to be merged here; we don't have separate articles on a monotypic genus and its only species. Peter coxhead (talk) 06:07, 4 August 2019 (UTC)

There is an undescribed taxon in this genus on Borneo though. Djringer (talk) 13:00, 7 August 2019 (UTC)
 * we can only act on sourced information. The World Spider Catalog still only lists one species, and MONOTYPICFAUNA is clear that monospecific genera have only one article for the species and genus. Peter coxhead (talk) 21:01, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Despite my recent close I think that you're quire right to reverse that and push ahead with the merge, given the lack of evidence for another species in the genus. Klbrain (talk) 22:19, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
 * thanks; I'll try to remember to make the merge in a week or so if there are no more responses. Peter coxhead (talk) 07:29, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
