Orcevia is a genus of Asian jumping spiders that was first described by Tamerlan Thorell in 1890.[2] It was once considered a synonym of Laufeia,[3] but it was revalidated in 2019.[4]

Laufeia, circumscribed to include Orcevia, is placed in the tribe Euophryini, part of the Salticoida clade of the subfamily Salticinae.[5]

Species[]

As of August 2019 it contains five species, found only in Asia:[1]
