Soesilarishius Chaplini
''Soesilarishius'' is a spider genus of the jumping spider family, Salticidae. The type species ''S. amrishi'' is only known from male specimens, which are 3.1 mm long, with a dark brown carapace. Validity The genus describer Dewanand Makhan publishes in the Australian journal ''Calodema'', whose editor seems to have no quality standards whatsoever, while comparing scientists in general with Hitler and Stalin. While Makhan's work on ants and beetles is substandard (describing existing species without knowledge of the fundamental literature), ''Soesilarishius'' seems to have been accepted by the arachnologist community, with 23 species being accepted . Name The genus is named after the wife and a son of the describer, Soesila and Rishwan. The type species is named after another son, Amrish. Species , the World Spider Catalog accepted the following species: *'' Soesilarishius albipes'' Ruiz, 2011 – Brazil *'' Soesilarishius amrishi'' Makhan, 2007 ( type species) †...

Spider
Spiders ( order Araneae) are air-breathing arthropods that have eight legs, chelicerae with fangs generally able to inject venom, and spinnerets that extrude silk. They are the largest order of arachnids and rank seventh in total species diversity among all orders of organisms. Spiders are found worldwide on every continent except for Antarctica, and have become established in nearly every land habitat. , 50,356 spider species in 132 families have been recorded by taxonomists. However, there has been debate among scientists about how families should be classified, with over 20 different classifications proposed since 1900. Anatomically, spiders (as with all arachnids) differ from other arthropods in that the usual body segments are fused into two tagmata, the cephalothorax or prosoma, and the opisthosoma, or abdomen, and joined by a small, cylindrical pedicel, however, as there is currently neither paleontological nor embryological evidence that spiders ever had ...
