All species have two white longitudinal stripes on the carapace, and both sexes show strong bristles around the eyes. The name is a combination of the Greek ''sten-'' "narrow" and the salticid genus '' Aelurillus''. Species it contains forty-six species, found only in Africa and Asia: *''Stenaelurillus abramovi'' Logunov, 2008 – Thailand, Vietnam *'' Stenaelurillus albopunctatus'' Caporiacco, 1949 – Kenya *''Stenaelurillus albus'' Sebastian, Sankaran, Malamel & Joseph, 2015 – India *''Stenaelurillus arambagensis'' (Biswas & Biswas, 1992) – India *''Stenaelurillus bandama'' Logunov & Azarkina, 2018 – Ivory Coast *''Stenaelurillus belihuloya'' Logunov & Azarkina, 2018 – Sri Lanka *''Stenaelurillus brandbergensis'' ( Wesolowska, 2006) – Namibia *''Stenaelurillus darwini'' Wesolowska & R ...

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 Taxonomy (biology), 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 National Museum of Natural History (France), 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 fos ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Stenaelurillus Fuscatus
''Stenaelurillus fuscatus'' is a species of jumping spider in the genus '' Stenaelurillus'' that lives in Kenya and Tanzania.
