Onomastus is a genus of Asian jumping spiders that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1900. It is the only genus in the subfamily Onomastinae.
Pancorius is a genus of Asian jumping spiders that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1902. They are similar to Hyllus.
Wanda Wesołowska is a Polish zoologist known for her work with jumping spiders. She has described more species of jumping spider than any contemporary writer, and is second only to Eugène Simon in the history of arachnology. Originally a student of ornithology, she developed an interest in jumping spiders while still a student at the Siedlce University of Natural Sciences and Humanities in the 1970s.
Phintella paludosa is a species of jumping spider in the genus Phintella that lives in Africa. It was first described in 2012 by Wanda Wesołowska and G. B. Edwards, from a holotype discovered in Cross River State, Nigeria, and was subsequently also found in Ivory Coast. The species was first seen in a swamp, so the species name is derived from the Latin for marshy. The spider is small, with a brown carapace and almost black abdomen. The female is smaller than the male. It is similar to the related Phintella aequipes but can be distinguished by the thick short embolus in the male of the species and the very small epigyne with copulatory openings at the rear in the female.
Phintella africana is a species of jumping spider in the genus Phintella that lives in Ethiopia. The female of the species was first described in 2008 by Wanda Wesołowska and Beata Tomasiewicz. The spider, which is named after the continent where it was found, is small and brown, with a mottled brown and yellow abdomen 2.4 mm (0.094 in) long. It lives in grasslands.
Menemerus nigli is a species of jumping spider in the genus Menemerus that originates in Asia. The male was identified in 2012 by Wanda Wesołowska and Mario Freudenschuss, and the female by Pir Asmat Ali, Wayne Maddison. Muhammad Zahid and Abida Buttin in 2018. The spider is medium-sized, typically 4.89 millimetres (0.193 in) in length, with a dark brown carapace and grey-brown abdomen that has a distinctive cream and white pattern created by small hairs. It was originally found in India, Pakistan and Thailand but was also found to have been introduced into Latin America, the first specimens being identified in Brazil in 2020. It seems to thrive amongst the sunlit stucco walls that are common in cities across the region. Menemerus nigli is used as an example of the ability of species that adapt to human habitation to expand their ecological niche and become global species.
Phintella lunda is a species of jumping spider in the genus Phintella that lives in Angola. It was first described in 2010 by Wanda Wesołowska, and given a name to reflect the fact that it was first found in Lunda Sul Province. The spider is medium-sized and a similar shape to others in the genus. It has a very dark brown carapace that has edge markings and a greyish-brown abdomen that has streaks on the top and sides, but the main distinguishing feature are the copulatory organs. The male has a distinctive straight side to its palpal bulb, while the female has am epigyne which has two pockets and copulatory openings in cups.
Phintella caledoniensis is a species of jumping spider in the genus Phintella that lives in New Caledonia. First described in 2009 by Barbara Patoleta, it was named after the island where it was found. The spider is small and has a brown cephalothorax with patches, the female being generally darker, and a grey or grey-brown abdomen. The female has distinctive bean-shaped spermatheca and the male a long and thin embolus.
Onomastus maskeliya, is a species of spider of the genus Onomastus. It is endemic to Sri Lanka. Onomastus maskeliya inhabits high altitude cloud forests, as a result, its distribution is limited.
Padillothorax is a genus of southeastern Asian jumping spiders first described by Eugène Simon in 1901.
Proszynskia is a small genus of south Asian jumping spiders erected by N. Kanesharatnam and Benjamin in 2019 after a molecular phylogenetic study of south Asian spiders showed the relationship between two species previously belonging to Marpissa and Phintella. They are large for jumping spiders, growing up to 7 to 9 millimetres long. The thin abdomen has a yellow stripe between two black stripes.
Colopsus is a genus of Asian jumping spiders first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1902. It was synonymized with Evarcha in 1984, but the name was revalidated in 2021. It is a senior synonym of Cheliceroides.
Indopadilla is a genus of jumping spiders first described by J. T. D. Caleb, P. M. Sankaran and K. S. Nafin in 2019. It was placed into the tribe Baviini in the Salticoida clade of Salticinae. Several species have been transferred from the genus Bavia.
Orientattus is a genus of Asian jumping spiders erected by John Caleb in 2020. It is placed in the tribe Plexippini, within the Salticoida clade of Salticinae. In 2018 and 2019, a species found in Sri Lanka and India was placed in the otherwise African genus Schenkelia under the name "Schenkelia aurantia", however, this species differed significantly from the type species of the genus Schenkelia. Three other species, placed in different genera, were found to resemble Schenkelia aurantia, and these were all combined to create the genus, Orientattus.
Chrysillini is a tribe of jumping spider in the family Salticidae. In Maddison's 2015 revision of the family, the subfamily Heliophaninae was reclassified as a junior synonym of Chrysillini.
Maripanthus is a genus of Asian jumping spiders first described by Wayne Maddison, I. Beattie and K. Marathe in 2020.
Stenaelurillus lesserti is a species of jumping spider found in southern India and Sri Lanka. The male has red and blue horizontal stripes on the front of the face while the female is dull. There are two transverse stripes on the prosoma.
Phintella platnicki is a species of jumping spider from southern India.
