Devade is a genus of cribellate araneomorph spiders in the family Argyronetidae. It was first described by Eugène Simon in 1884.[3] Originally placed with the Amaurobiidae, it was moved to the intertidal spiders in 1983,[4] then to the Dictynidae in 1989. [5] It was included in the re-erected family Argyronetidae in 2025.[1]
