Pystira is a genus of spiders in the jumping spider family Salticidae. [1]
The genus Pystira was erected by Eugène Simon in 1901 with the type species Pystira ephippigera , which he had originally placed in a different genus (Hadrosoma, no longer in use) when he first described it in 1885. [1] In 2015, Junxia Zhang and Wayne Maddison synonymized Pystira with Omoedus , [2] but this was rejected by rejected by Jerzy Prószyński in 2017, [3] and the genus is accepted by the World Spider Catalog as of August 2020 [update] . [1]
When synonymized with Omoedus, the genus was placed in the tribe Euophryini in Maddison's 2015 classification of the family Salticidae. [4] Prószyński placed the separated genus in his informal group euophryines. [3]
As of August 2020 [update] , the World Spider Catalog accepted the following extant species: [1]
Amphidraus is a genus of South American jumping spiders first described by Eugène Simon in 1900. It was previously considered a synonym of Nebridia, but this was later rejected by Jerzy Prószyński, who claimed that merging the two genera wasn't supported by previous diagnostic drawings.
Colyttus is a genus of Asian jumping spiders that was first described by Tamerlan Thorell in 1891. It is named for the Latin word for "with two stripes". C. lehtinen is named in honor of Finnish arachnologist Pekka T. Lehtinen.

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.
