In 2009, N. Snegovaya & W. Staręga synonymized this genus with Phalangium, on the grounds that the shape of the horn on the second segment of the male chelicera (the only diagnostic character of the genus Bactrophalangium) fits well within the range demonstrated by the rest of the genus Phalangium.[3] These species have therefore been renamed Phalangium ghissaricum Gricenko, 1976 and Phalangium jakesi (Šilhavý, 1966).
