Pystira is a genus of spiders in the jumping spider family Salticidae.[1]
Taxonomy
The genus Pystira was erected by Eugène Simon in 1901 with the type species Pystira ephippigera, which he had originally placed in a different genus (Hadrosoma, no longer in use) when he first described it in 1885.[1] In 2015, Junxia Zhang and Wayne Maddison synonymized Pystira with Omoedus,[2] but this was rejected by Jerzy Prószyński in 2017,[3] and the genus is accepted by the World Spider Catalog Template:As of.[1]
When synonymized with Omoedus, the genus was placed in the tribe Euophryini in Maddison's 2015 classification of the family Salticidae.[4] Prószyński placed the separated genus in his informal group euophryines.[3]
