Nimbarus is a monotypic genus of Guinean jumping spiders containing the single species, Nimbarus pratensis. It was first described by C. Rollard & Wanda Wesołowska in 2002, [2] and is only found in Guinea. [1] The name is derived from the Nimba Mountains, where the species was first found. The species name is derived from the Latin " pratensis", meaning "meadow", for the habitat where this species can be found. [2]
These spiders are about 4 millimetres (0.16 in) long, though only the male has been described. [1] [2]
