Manzuma
''Manzuma'' is a genus of African jumping spiders erected by Galina Azarkina in 2020 as part of a study of genera placed in the tribe (biology), subtribe Aelurillina. During the study, she found that several species formerly placed in ''Rafalus'', ''Aelurillus'' and ''Langelurillus'' were similar and distinct enough from the type species of these genera. Accordingly, she erected a new genus, transferring four species in addition to describing three new ones. Species it contains seven species: *''Manzuma botswana, M. botswana'' Azarkina, 2020 – Botswana, South Africa *''Manzuma jocquei, M. jocquei'' (Azarkina, Wanda Wesolowska, Wesołowska & Russell-Smith, 2011) – Ivory Coast, Nigeria, Central African Rep. *''Manzuma kenyaensis, M. kenyaensis'' (Dawidowicz & Wesołowska, 2016) – Kenya *''Manzuma lymphus, M. lymphus'' (Próchniewicz & Hęciak, 1994) – Kenya *''Manzuma nigritibiis, M. nigritibiis'' (Caporiacco, 1941) (Type_species, type) – Ethiopia, Yemen *''Manzuma petroa ...

Manzuma Jocquei
''Manzuma jocquei'' is a species of jumping spider in the genus ''Manzuma'' that lives in Central African Republic, Ivory Coast and Nigeria. Originally named ''Aelurillus jocquei'', the spider was first described in 2011 by Wanda Wesołowska, Wesołowska and Antony Russell-Smith. The spider is small, with a carapace between long and an Opisthosoma, abdomen between long. The carapace has a white stripe formed of scales which is more pronounced on the male. The male abdomen also has a stripe, but the female has two lines of white spots. The male has a thin embolus that is hidden by the hairy palpal bulb while the female has complex highly Sclerotization, sclerotized copulatory ducts and a large pocket in the epigyne. These distinguish the species from other spiders in the genus, although the females are almost impossible to tell apart from some species like ''Manzuma lympha'' and ''Manzuma nigritibia''.
