Araneus to use the genus in their publications, notably Franganillo (1913, 1918), Hingston (1932), Kaston (1948) and Marples (1957). Chamberlin and Ivie published a new species, "Epeira miniata", in 1944, which was rejected. Jean-Henri Fabre refers to "Argiope" spiders as "Epeira" in his 1928 book "The Life of the Spider" ("La Vie des araignées"), within the family "Epeirae". James Henry Emerton also uses the genus "Epeira" in his 1902 book "The Common Spiders of the United States", but refers to spiders mostly now considered "Araneus". The popular 1893 book "American Spiders and their Spinningwork" by Henry Christopher McCook also uses "Epeira"
