''Atomosphyrus'' is a genus of South American jumping spiders that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon Eugene is a common male given name that comes from the Greek εὐγενής (''eugenēs''), "noble", literally "well-born", from εὖ (''eu''), "well" and γένος (''genos''), "race, stock, kin".

Atomosphyrus Wandae
''Atomosphyrus wandae'' is a species of jumping spider in the genus '' Atomosphyrus'' that lives in Brazil. The spider was first described in 2020 by Abel Bustamante and Gustavo Ruiz. Only the male has been identified. It is a small spider with an orange carapace iong and a cream-colored abdomen long. The carapace has a pattern of stripes and the abdomen has a pattern of spots. It can be distinguished from other spiders in the genus, particularly the similar '' Atomosphyrus breyeri'', by the length of the embolus and its triangular retrolateral tibial apophysis. Taxonomy ''Atomosphyrus wandae'' was first described by Abel Bustamante and Gustavo Ruiz in 2020. The species was named after the Polish arachnologist Wanda Wesołowska. It was placed in the genus '' Atomosphyrus'', first described by Eugène Simon in 1902. It was placed in the tribe Thiodinini in the clade Amycoida by Wayne Maddison in 2015 on the basis of its ant-like body. In 2017, the genus was grouped with 30 othe ...

Eugène Simon
Eugène Louis Simon (; 30 April 1848 – 17 November 1924) was a French naturalist who worked particularly on insects and spiders, but also on birds and plants. He is by far the most prolific spider taxonomist in history, describing over 4,000 species. Work on spiders His most significant work was ''Histoire Naturelle des Araignées'' (1892–1903), an encyclopedic treatment of the spider genera of the world. It was published in two volumes of more than 1000 pages each, and the same number of drawings by Simon. Working at the Muséum National d'Histoire Naturelle in Paris, it took Simon 11 years to complete, while working at the same time on devising a taxonomic scheme that embraced the known taxa. Simon described a total of 4,650 species, and as of 2013 about 3,790 species are still considered valid. The International Society of Arachnology offers a Simon Award recognising lifetime achievement. The Eocene fossil spider species '' Cenotextricella simoni'' was named in his ...

María Elena Galiano
María Elena Galiano (1928 – October 30, 2000) was an Argentine arachnologist. She was one of the leading taxonomists of Neotropical jumping spiders. Galiano worked at the Bernardino Rivadavia Natural Sciences Museum in Buenos Aires. She died in an accident on October 30, 2000. The genera ''Galianora'' and ''Galianoella'' are named in her honor. Taxa described Galiano described numerous species and genera of spiders. She is the authority for the following genera: * '' Admesturius'' Galiano, 1988 * '' Hisukattus'' Galiano, 1987 * '' Kalcerrytus'' Galiano, 2000 * '' Nycerella'' Galiano, 1982 * '' Simonurius'' Galiano, 1988 * '' Sumampattus'' Galiano, 1983 * '' Trydarssus'' Galiano, 1995 * '' Wedoquella'' Galiano, 1984 * ''Yepoella ''Yepoella'' is a monotypic taxon, monotypic genus of Argentinian Salticidae, jumping spiders containing the single species, ''Yepoella crassistyli''. It was first described by María Elena Galiano in 1970, and is found in Argentina. A second spec ...'' ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Genus
Genus ( plural genera ) is a taxonomic rank used in the biological classification of extant taxon, living and fossil organisms as well as Virus classification#ICTV classification, viruses. In the hierarchy of biological classification, genus comes above species and below family (taxonomy), family. In binomial nomenclature, the genus name forms the first part of the binomial species name for each species within the genus. :E.g. ''Panthera leo'' (lion) and ''Panthera onca'' (jaguar) are two species within the genus ''Panthera''. ''Panthera'' is a genus within the family Felidae. The composition of a genus is determined by taxonomy (biology), taxonomists. The standards for genus classification are not strictly codified, so different authorities often produce different classifications for genera. There are some general practices used, however, including the idea that a newly defined genus should fulfill these three criteria to be descriptively useful: # monophyly – all descendants ...

Salticidae
Jumping spiders are a group of spiders that constitute the family Salticidae. As of 2019, this family contained over 600 described genera and over 6,000 described species, making it the largest family of spiders at 13% of all species. Jumping spiders have some of the best vision among arthropods and use it in courtship, hunting, and navigation. Although they normally move unobtrusively and fairly slowly, most species are capable of very agile jumps, notably when hunting, but sometimes in response to sudden threats or crossing long gaps. Both their book lungs and tracheal system are well-developed, and they use both systems (bimodal breathing). Jumping spiders are generally recognized by their eye pattern. All jumping spiders have four pairs of eyes, with the anterior median pair being particularly large. Distinguishing characteristics Jumping spiders are among the easiest to distinguish from similar spider families because of the shape of the cephalothorax and their eye pa ...
