The genus is characterized by the presence of a small bulb; embolus with or without an obvious bifurcation in the middle. Carapace of males with obvious wrinkles, no apophysis in known species, cephalic part of carapace clearly the highest. Metatarsi are ca. 2–3 times longer than tarsi (modified from Wunderlich 2008, 2015, 2017).</p><p>Remarks. † Furcembolus was established by Wunderlich in 2008, placed in the fossil family † Eopsilodercidae Wunderlich, 2008, but Wunderlich wasn’t sure about their relationships. † Praeterpaculla Wunderlich, 2015 was erected by Wunderlich under the family Tetrablemmidae with five new species. After studying further specimens, the genus † Praeterpaculla was regarded as a junior synonym of † Furcembolus, and † Furcembolus turned out to be a taxon of Pacullinae, Tetrablemmidae (Wunderlich 2017) . After the restoration of family status of Pacullidae (Wheeler et al. 2017), Magalhaes et al. (2020) proposed that † Furcembolus should be listed under Pacullidae . At present, † Furcembolus is the only genus of extinct Pacullidae, including nine known species and three new species described in this paper.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/AA703D03FF80FFD7BCBA3BF8FE59F88E	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

The fossil genus † Furcembolus was first assigned to Pacullidae by Magalhaes et al. (2020). Pacullidae can be distinguished from Tetrablemmidae by their larger size (total length 3.0–9.0), heavily rugose cuticle and by lacking a pair of large membranous receptacles in the female genitalia (Shear 1978; Lehtinen 1981; Wheeler et al. 2017). Though characters concerning female genitalia are almost impossible to observe in fossil specimens, † Furcembolus can be assigned to Pacullidae by their size (&gt;3.0) and rugose cuticle.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/AA703D03FF80FFD7BCBA3CBCFBFDFBF3	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

In F. andersoni, the tibia is without apophysis. The embolus of F. crassitibia (see Wunderlich 2017: 129, fig. 78) is similar to F. fengzheni spec. nov., but can be distinguished by the angle of embolus.
