Colossendeis is a genus of sea spider (class Pycnogonida) belonging to the family Colossendeidae.[1] Phylogenetic analysis indicates that this genus is paraphyletic with respect to the genera Decolopoda and Dodecolopoda, which are found to be nested within the genus Colossendeis in a phylogenetic tree.[2]
The genus Colossendeis includes the largest pycnogonids, with leg spans of about 40–50 centimetres (16–20 in). These sea spiders can be found in deep-sea.[3]
The genus contains bioluminescent species.[4]
