Toxeus is a genus of jumping spiders first described by Carl Ludwig Koch in 1846. [1] The genus was synonymized with Myrmarachne by Eugène Simon in 1901, and remained a synonym until revived by Jerzy Prószyński in 2016, [2] when he split up Myrmarachne. [3]
Prószyński placed Toxeus in his informal group "myrmarachnines". [3] When synonymized with Myrmarachne, it was placed in the tribe Myrmarachnini, part of the Salticoida clade of the subfamily Salticinae in Maddison's 2015 classification of the family Salticidae. [4]
As of February 2022 [update], it includes the following species: [2]
