Pystira is a genus of spiders in the jumping spider family Salticidae.[1]

Taxonomy[]

The genus Pystira was erected by Eugène Simon in 1901 with the type species , 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.[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]

Species[]

As of August 2020, the World Spider Catalog accepted the following extant species:[1]
