The Plexippini are a tribe of jumping spiders (Salticidae). They have also been treated as the subfamily Plexippinae. They are native to the Old World. [1]
Wayne Maddison in 2015 placed the following genera in the tribe: [1]
Attulus is a genus of jumping spiders that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1889. The name is a diminutive form of a common prefix for salticid genera, -attus.
Carrhotus is a genus of jumping spiders that was first described by Tamerlan Thorell in 1891. The name is derived from the Greek Κάῤῥωτος.
Evarcha is a genus of spiders in the family Salticidae with 85 species distributed across the world.
Heliophanus is a genus of the spider family Salticidae. Most of the almost 170 described species occur in Africa, with many others found in the Palearctic region from Europe to Japan.
Hyllus is a genus of the spider family Salticidae.
Langona is a spider genus of the family Salticidae (jumping spiders).
Phlegra is a genus of jumping spiders that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1876. The name is a reference to a mythical location in both Greek and Roman mythology.
Plexippus is a genus of jumping spiders that was first described by Carl Ludwig Koch in 1846. It is considered a senior synonym of Hissarinus and Apamamia.
Pseudicius is a genus of the jumping spiders first described by Eugène Simon in 1885. The name is combined of Greek pseudo "false" and the salticid genus name Icius. The small genus Wesolowskana should possibly be included in this genus. There is some dispute whether Afraflacilla is a distinct genus or should be included in Pseudicius. Festucula and Marchena are other close relatives, these genera form a monophyletic group.
Pystira is a genus of spiders in the jumping spider family Salticidae.
Rhene is a spider genus of the family Salticidae.
Thyene is a genus of jumping spiders that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1885. It is a junior synonym of Mithion, and senior synonym of Paramodunda and Gangus.
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.
The Dendryphantina are a subtribe of jumping spiders that occur mainly in the New World. The subtribe was first defined by Anton Menge in 1879 as Dendryphantidae. Females of the subtribe generally show paired spots on the abdomen, and the males often have enlarged chelicerae. Females in this subtribe typically have S-shaped epigynal openings.
The Spartaeinae are a subfamily of the spider family Salticidae. The subfamily was established by Fred R. Wanless in 1984 to include the groups Boetheae, Cocaleae, Lineae, Codeteae and Cyrbeae, which in turn were defined by Eugène Simon.
Euophryini is a tribe of jumping spiders. It has also been treated as the subfamily Euophryinae.
Aelurillina is a subtribe of jumping spiders. Nearly all species live in the Old World, except Phlegra hentzi.
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.
Pseudomogrus is a genus of jumping spiders first described by Eugène Simon in 1937.
