Giribet, G. & W.A. Shear, 2010 : The genus Siro Latreille, 1796 (Opiliones, Cyphophthalmi, Sironidae) in North America with a phylogenetic analysis based on molecular data and the description of four new species. Bulletin of the Museum of Comparative Zoology 160(1): 1–33 . Full article: [1].

The Sironidae are a family of harvestmen with more than 30 described species.

The family shows a Laurasian distribution, with most species found in temperate Europe and the west coast of North America. The only exception is Suzukielus sauteri from Japan.[1]
Name

Siro is the Latinized form of the French name "Ciron".[1]
