By expanding the most comprehensive analysis on erigonine phylogeny by Miller and Hormiga (2004, Cladistics, 20, 385-442) we tested its robustness towards the addition of closely related taxa and also the monophyly of the Savignia-group defined by Millidge (1977, Bull. Br. arachnol. Soc. 4, 1-60). The original character matrix was therefore expanded by addition of 18 newly scored species in 15 genera and also includes all species that were scored by other authors. This adds up to 98 species in 91 erigonine genera plus 13 outgroup taxa. The parsimony analysis led to eight fully resolved most parsimonious trees (L=1084). The topology of the taxa basal to the ?distal erigonines? remained unchanged and the ?distal erigonines? still share 67 % of all nodes with the original analysis. The Savignia-group is not monophyletic on genus level with respect to Saloca diceros and Alioranus pastoralis and also on species level in Diplocephalus and Erigonella. From the Savignia-group, Glyphesis servulus, Diplocephalus cristatus, Savignia frontata and two representatives each of Erigonella, Dicymbium and Araeoncus, form a monophyletic clade.} }
