Abstract

Five species of jumping spiders belonging to four genera of subfamilies Lyssomaninae (Onomastus) and Spartaeinae (Phaeacius, Portia and Yaginumanis) from China were diagnosed, described and figured. These widely distributed genera range from subtropical China to tropical Southeast Asia. Four species were found to be new to science, Onomastus nigrimaculatus (female, male), Phaeacius yixin (male), Portia taiwanica (female, male) and Yaginumanis wanlessi (female); the species Phaeacius malayensis Wanless, 1981 (female, male), is newly recorded from China. © National University of Singapore.
