Enoplomischus


Enoplomischus is a genus of African jumping spiders that was first described by L. Giltay in 1931. It has a large, spike-like process on its pedicel that probably mimics a similar spike present in the anterior part of the abdomen of Odontomachus ants after which these spiders seem to be modeled.
