Species

Enoplomischus is a genus of African jumping spiders that was first described by L. Giltay in 1931. [2] As of June 2019, it contains only two species, found only in Africa: E. ghesquierei and E. spinosus. [1] 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. [3]
