The present work aimed to study the phylogenetic relationships and test the monophyly of the subfamilies of Hahniidae. Thus, this study was divided into two parts: the first is an introduction consisting of a brief literature review on Hahniidae and, the second part is written manuscript for publication in English: Article: Cladistic analysis of the subfamilies of the comb-tailed spider (Araneae: Hahniidae), manuscript will be submitted to Zoologica Scripta (Factor 2913 - A1). In the manuscript we performed a parsimony analysis with heuristic search, characters unordered and with equal weights for all characters, resulting in relationship hypothesis (L = 412, CI = 37, RI = 53) between 30 terminals and 106 morphological characters, 63 somatic, 42 sexual and one from behavior. This is the first phylogenetic hypothesis for the family based on morphological characters and composed of members of all three subfamilies of Hahniidae. The ingroup was composed of 14 species of Hahniinae, five species of Cybaeolinae, five species of Cryphoecinae, two species incertae sedis, and the outgroup composed of members of Dictynidae, Cybaeidae, Agelenidae and Amaurobidae. In this hypothesis, Hahniidae as is currently defined, is not a monophyletic group, Cryphoecinae is monophyletic and related with Cybaeidae and Dictynidae, other hahniids appear as the sister group to Dictynidae. Both, Cybaeolinae and Hahniinae are not a monophyletic group. Cybaeolinae seems to be composed only by gender Cybaeolus, while for Hahniinae more studies are needed to define the relationships between the genera that comprise this subfamily, especially an extensive review of the genus Hahnia.
