Carparachne is a genus of Namibian huntsman spiders that was first described by R. F. Lawrence in 1962.[2] As of September 2019[update] it contains two species, found in Namibia: C. alba and C. aureoflava.[1] The golden wheel spider (C. aureoflava) uses cartwheeling to move across hot, sandy ground, similar to the related Cebrennus rechenbergi, which uses a flic-flac motion.
