In biology, a homonym is a name for a taxon that is identical in spelling to another such name, that belongs to a different taxon.
Abracadabrella is a genus of spiders in the family Salticidae whose spp. appear to mimics flies. The type species for the genus was described by Ludwig Koch (1879) as Marptusa elegans, transferred to Ocrisiona by Eugène Simon (1901) then placed into Abracadabrella by Marek Żabka (1991).
Udvardya is a genus of jumping spider endemic to New Guinea. As of 2017, it contains only one species, Udvardya elegans.
D. elegans may refer to:
Cyriocosmus elegans is a spider species in the genus Cyriocosmus and the family Theraphosidae (tarantulas) found in Venezuela, Trinidad and Tobago.
Caladenia elegans, commonly known as the elegant spider orchid, is a species of orchid endemic to a small area near the coast of the south-west of Western Australia. It resembles the common spider orchid and often grows with it but its flowers are a different colour and C. elegans usually grows in poorly-drained soils. Only about 2,300 plants remained in 2016.
Cethegus elegans is a species of spider in the genus Cethegus found in Queensland.
Latrodectus elegans is a species of black widow spider, found in South Asia, Southeast Asia and East Asia. It was first collected by the Swedish arachnologist Tamerlan Thorell in the Karen Hills in Myanmar, but is also found in Thailand, India, Nepal, Vietnam, China and Japan. As of July 2022, the World Spider Catalog only lists India, Nepal, Myanmar, China and Japan. This species has only been recorded in India and Nepal since 2012, and Indochina in 2015, which is thought to reflect historical under-surveying of arachnids in this region.
Larinia is a genus of orb-weaver spiders first described by Eugène Simon in 1874.
Dolomedes elegans Taczanowski, 1874 is a spider species in the family Pisauridae, found in French Guiana.
Abracadabrella elegans is a species of jumping spider in the genus Abracadabrella. Its common name is Elegant Fly Mimic. It is reasonably common in coastal Eastern Australia, mostly Queensland. It appears to mimic a large fly with two black raised, rounded mounds on the rear of the abdomen, which look like eyes, and its spinnerets which resemble a fly's mouthparts. It walks backwards apparently to enhance the mimicry. Abracadabrella spp. are found on or under bark or on foliage from coastal north Queensland south to at least the central coast NSW.
Mahembea is a genus of African orb-weaver spiders containing the single species, Mahembea hewitti. It was first created by M. Grasshoff in 1970 to separate this species from its original genus, Larinia. It has only been found in Central and East Africa.
Rogmocrypta elegans is a species of spiders in the jumping spider family, Salticidae. It is the type species of its genus. It is found in New Caledonia and the Philippines.
Silometopus elegans is a species of spiders in the family Linyphiidae found in Europe. It was first described by Octavius Pickard-Cambridge in 1873, as Erigone elegans. It was transferred to the genus Silometopus by Eugène Simon in 1884.
Afraflacilla elegans is a species of spider in the family Salticidae. It is found in Zimbabwe and South Africa. Both the female and the male were first described in 2008, but the species initially placed in the genus Pseudicius, being moved to Afraflacilla in 2017.
Xysticus elegans, the elegant crab spider, is a species of spiders found in the United States, Canada, and Alaska.
Larinia borealis is a species of orb weaver in the family of spiders known as Araneidae. It is found in North America.
Padillothorus is a genus of jumping spiders in the family Salticidae containing the single species, Padillothorus elegans. It was first described by Jerzy Prószyński in 2018, and has only been found in Indonesia.
Larinia jeskovi is a species of the family of orb weaver spiders and a part of the genus Larinia. It is distributed throughout the Americas, Africa, Australia, Europe, and Asia and commonly found in wet climes such as marshes, bogs, and rainforests. Larinia jeskovi have yellow bodies with stripes and range from 5.13-8.70 millimeters in body length. They build their webs on plants with a small height above small bodies of waters or wetlands. After sunset and before sunrise are the typical times they hunt and build their web. Males usually occupy a female's web instead of making their own. The mating behavior is noteworthy as male spiders often mutilate external female genitalia to reduce sperm competition while female spiders resort to sexual cannibalism to counter such mechanisms. The males also follow an elaborate courtship ritual to attract the female. The bite of Larinia jeskovi is not known to be of harm to humans.
