Family: Salticidae Blackwall, 1841 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spiderfam:0101] Back

Gen. Evarcha Simon, 1902 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:02950 ]
N.B.: the synonymy of this genus with Pellenes Simon, 1876 (Lowrie & Gertsch, 1955: 10) has not been accepted by subsequent workers; split into several genera by Prószyński, 2018b (leaving 15 species in Evarcha s. lat., listed as "Evarcha [?]"); the genera Evacin Prószyński, 2018b: 141 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:06014] (type Evarcha kochi Simon, 1902), Evalba Prószyński, 2018b: 148 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:06015] (type Hasarius albarius L. Koch, 1878), Evaneg Prószyński, 2018b: 149 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:06016] (type Evarcha negevensis Prószyński, 2000) and Evawes Prószyński, 2018b: 152 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:06017] (type Salticus patagiatus O. Pickard-Cambridge, 1872) are not accepted here per Kropf et al., 2019: 445; Kanesharatnam & Benjamin, 2021: 2770 agree with Prószyński, 2018b that Evarcha should be split, but the "division supported by our analysis is different from what he chose".
