Note on illustrations. This introduction to classification
of Salticidae includes only species defined by diagnostic illustrations in
the taxonomic literature, arranged by similarities of embolus and spermophor.
Images are displayed as thumbnails to save space and allow for rapid scanning
of theoretically closely-related species. Thumbnails are small versions
of illustrations in other parts of the monograph, whera are displayed
together with particulars of their sources and permissions.
Gen.Cosmophasis Simon, 1901(13 species on this page )
ATTENTION:
Cosmophasis is a popular genus in Eastern Hemisphere tropics, recognizable
in the field by irridescent light reflecting body
(due to transparent
scale coverage) and bright color patter. However, there are several
groups of species differing strikingly by shape of
palps and spermathecae.
Drawings suggesting splitting Cosmophasis into different genera
and eventual reclassificatio are shown below.
Group of species Cosmophasis (micarioides group) (7 species)
Representative species Cosmophasis baehrae . Diagnostic drawings below are integral part of definition.
