Contents

Neon nelli is similar in appearance to Neon reticulatus , but can be distinguished based on the genitalia. The atria of the epigyne are large in N. nelli, approaching the size of the oval sperm receptacles. In N. reticulatus, the atria are only half the diameter of the receptacles. The males can be distinguished by the embolus of the pedipalp, which is thicker at the base in N. nelli. [3]

<i>Neon</i> (spider) Genus of spiders

Neon is a spider genus of the jumping spider family, Salticidae. Its described species occur mostly in Eurasia, with some species found in North and South America. One species, N. convolutus, is also found in Algeria. Two species are known from Australia, N. australis and N. taylori. N. australis has palp morphology and fringing on its first pair of legs very similar to that seen in N. nojimai Ikeda 1995, from Japan. N. taylori is most similar in morphology to N. sumatranus from Indonesia and N. kovblyuki from the Crimea and elsewhere. The genus is common and widespread in litter throughout Australia, from the highlands of Tasmania through the hot, dry inland to the wet tropics and includes many undescribed species.
