Orcevia is a genus of Asian jumping spiders first described by Tamerlan Thorell in 1890. [2] Laufeia, circumscribed to include Orcevia, is placed in the tribe Euophryini in the Salticoida clade of Salticinae. [3] It was once considered a synonym of Laufeia , [4] but it was revalidated in 2019. [5]
As of March 2022 [update] it contains six species: [1]
Nebridia is a monotypic genus of Venezuelan jumping spiders containing the single species, Nebridia semicana. It was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1902, and is only found in Venezuela. It was briefly considered a synonym of Amphidraus, it was elevated to genus status in 2017.
Nicylla is a monotypic genus of Sumatran jumping spiders containing the single species, Nicylla sundevalli. It was first described by Tamerlan Thorell in 1890, and is only found on Sumatra. Briefly considered a synonym of Thiania, it was elevated back to genus status in 2017.
Omoedus is a genus of jumping spiders.
Pystira is a genus of spiders in the jumping spider family Salticidae.
Thianitara is a genus of Southeast Asian jumping spiders that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1903. As of August 2019 it contains only two species, found in Thailand, Indonesia, and Malaysia: T. spectrum and T. thailandica. It was briefly considered a junior synonym of Thiania until 2017, when it was revived by Jerzy Prószyński.
Wallaba is a monotypic genus of Guyanese jumping spiders containing the single species, Wallaba metallica. It was first described by Cândido Firmino de Mello-Leitão in 1940, and is found in Guyana. It was synonymized with Sidusa in 2015, but was revalidated by Jerzy Prószyński in 2017.
Zenodorus is a genus of the jumping spiders distributed from the Moluccas to Australia, including several islands of the Pacific. It was once considered a junior synonym of Omoedus, but this was later rejected by Jerzy Prószyński in 2017. At least one species, Z. orbiculatus, specializes on hunting ants.
Euophryini is a tribe of jumping spiders. It has also been treated as the subfamily Euophryinae.
Emertonius is a genus of spiders in the jumping spider family Salticidae.
Marusyllus is a genus of spiders in the family Salticidae, found in Russia, Central Asia, the Indian subcontinent and China.
Hermosa is a genus of jumping spiders first described by G. W. Peckham and E. G. Peckham in 1892, and synonymized with Myrmarachne in 1901. In 2016, Jerzy Prószyński split up Myrmarachne, creating nine new genera, all with names beginning "Myrm". However, it turned out that Myrmavola volatilis, the type species of Myrmavola, was also the type species of Hermosa, and Myrmavola was made a junior synonym. It is part of the Myrmarachnini tribe within the Salticoida clade of Salticinae.
Nandicius is a genus of spiders in the family Salticidae. It was first described in 2016 by Jerzy Prószyński. As of 2017, it contains 7 Asian species.
Orienticius is a genus of spiders in the family Salticidae. It was first described in 2016 by Prószyński. As of 2017, it contains 2 species.
Junxattus is a monotypic genus of southeast Asian jumping spiders native to Sumatra. It contains the single species, Junxattus daiqini, first described by Jerzy Prószyński and Christa Deeleman-Reinhold in 2012. The genus was placed in the subfamily Euophryinae, the equivalent of the tribe Euophryini.
Yllenus desertus is a species of jumping spider in the genus Yllenus that is endemic to Mongolia. The species was first defined by Wanda Wesołowska in 1991, one of over 500 described by the arachnologist. It thrives in semi-arid climates. The spider is medium-sized, with a carapace measuring typically 2.48 mm (0.098 in) long and an abdomen between 3.2 and 3.4 mm long. It is generally brown in colour, although some examples have a light grey abdomen, with short yellow legs. The epigyne is distinctive. It is large with two narrow crescent-shaped and widely-spaced copulatory openings that lead to many-chambered spermathecae.
Pseudomogrus is a genus of jumping spiders first described by Eugène Simon in 1937.
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.
Euochin is a genus of east Asian jumping spiders first described by Jerzy Prószyński in 2018. The genus was split off from Euophrys. Prószyński placed the genus in his informal group "euophrydeae" within the "euophryines", the latter being equivalent to the tribe Euophryini, which is part of the subfamily Salticinae.
Rhenefictus wandae is a species of jumping spider in the genus Rhenefictus that lives in China and Vietnam. First described in 2021 by Cheng Wang and Shuqiang Li, it was initially allocated to the genus Rhene. In 2022, the species was acknowledged as the same as Rhenefictus tropicus and the two were synonymised under the current name. It is the type species of the genus Rhenefictus. Only the male has been described. The spider is small, with a dark red or dark brown carapace between 2.35 and 2.4 mm long and a brown abdomen between 2.4 and 2.98 mm long. The base of the abdomen is grey-yellow. The spider has a distinctive embolus on its palpal bulb that is coiled and whip-like, terminating in a pointed tip.
