Mexigonus is a genus of North American jumping spiders that was first described by Glavis Bernard Edwards in 2003. [2] The name is a reference Mexico, where the first identified species were found.
As of July 2019 [update] it contains four species, found only in Mexico and the United States: [1]
Phidippus is a genus in the family Salticidae. Some of the largest jumping spiders inhabit this genus, and many species are characterized by their brilliant, iridescent green chelicerae. Phidippus is distributed almost exclusively in North America, with the exception of two exported species. As of January 2021, there were about 80 described species in the genus. Species previously described in Phidippus which are found in India and Bangladesh do not belong in this genus.
Habronattus is a genus in the family Salticidae. Most species are native to North America. They are commonly referred to as paradise spiders due to their colorful courtship ornaments and complex dances, similar to birds-of-paradise.
