Menemerus Animatus
''Menemerus animatus'' is a species of jumping spider in the genus ''Menemerus'' that lives across the Mediterranean Basin and into the Afrotropical realm. The species was first described in 1876 by Octavius Pickard-Cambridge based on an example from Egypt. It has subsequently been found living across many countries from Algeria to Greece and Senegal to Yemen. It prefers living in sandy environments. The spider is medium-sized, with a carapace that is between 2.1 and 2.9 mm long and an abdomen that is between 2.2 and 4.7 mm in length. The female is larger than the male. The carapace is dark brown with a characteristic triangular pattern. The abdomen is light with a narrow brown stripe down the middle. The spinnerets and legs are yellow. The male spider has a short reproductive part called an embolus, which is missing a helper organ often found in other species, known as a secondary conductor. Additionally, the male has a straight spike, known as an apophysis, o ...

Menemerus Affinis
''Menemerus affinis'' is a species of jumping spider in the genus ''Menemerus'' that lives in the United Arab Emirates. The spider is externally hard to tell apart from the related ''Menemerus arabicus'' or '' Menemerus fagei''; this affinity is reflected in the species name. The spider was first described in 2010 by Wanda Wesołowska and Antonius van Harten based on a holotype discovered in Ras Al Khaimah. Other examples have been found in Dubai. The spider is medium sized with a brown cephalothorax that is between long and a greyish-brown abdomen between long. It has brown legs. The female is larger than the male and has an epigyne with a large pocket to the front and a notch at the back. The male copulatory organs has an embolus paired to a large secondary conductor and two spikes, or apophyses, on the pedipalp tibia. Taxonomy ''Menemerus affinis'' is a species of jumping spider that was first described by Wanda Wesołowska and Antonius van Harten in 2010. It ...

Menemerus Bifurcus
''Menemerus bifurcus'' is a species of jumping spider in the genus ''Menemerus'' that lives in South Africa, Zambia and Zimbabwe. The species was first described in 1999 by Wanda Wesołowska, one of over 500 descriptions she has written during her lifetime. The spider lives in groups in ''Acacia'', '' Combretum'', '' Jacaranda'', '' Spathodea'' and '' Trichilia'' trees as well as in houses and other areas of human habitation. It descends to attack prey on long threads of silk. It is a small spider, with a carapace that is between long and an abdomen between long. The female is larger than the male and generally lighter, ranging generally from fawnish-brown to dark brown. The species is similar to '' Menemerus formosus'' and '' Menemerus transvaalicus'' but differs in the design of its copulatory organs. The male has a short embolus with a longer lamella, which is recalled in the species name, and two distinctive tibial appendages, or apophyses, one with a characteristic tr ...
