''Soesiladeepakius'' is a
spider genus of the jumping spider family,
Salticidae.
The type species ''S. aschnae'' is only known from male specimens. These are 2.4 mm long, with a 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),][ ''Soesiladeepakius'' seems to have been accepted by the arachnologist community, with six species having been added by Ruiz & Maddison in 2012.][

Name
The genus is a combination of the given names Soesila and Deepak, the wife and son of the describer. The type species is named after the describer's daughter Aschna.[
