Template:Short description Template:Automatic taxobox Bellota is a genus of jumping spiders that was first described by George Peckham & Elizabeth Peckham in 1892.[1] It is similar in appearance to the genus Chirothecia, but has a narrower cephalothorax and a shorter eye area.[2] The type species was later designated as Bellota peckhami Galiano, 1978, from a male specimen previously misidentied by the Peckham's as Bellota formicina (Taczanowski, 1878), per Galiano, 1978.
Distribution
Most species of Balmaceda are found in South America with one also in Central America (Panama), and two in North America (United States of America).[3] Two others with a notably disjunct distribution in Pakistan described by Dyal, 1935 can be of questionable affinity.
