Distinctive group of relatively small spider caponiids species known only from the West Indies. The genus currently counts 11 extant species, but probably the real number is greater. Most species are very small (4–10 mm body length), and are very difficult to finding in the nature. They are wandering hunters, preferably found at ground level, under stones, in leaf litter or in the soil. Although the records of ''Cubanops'' are only from the Bahama Islands, Cuba, and Hispaniola, a few females juvenile specimens sharing the somatic characters of the genus have been taken on St. John, suggesting that ''Cubanops'' probably occurs in Puerto Rico as well as the Virgin Islands.〔Sánchez-Ruiz, A., N.I.
