Pseudeuophrys is a genus of jumping spiders that was first described by Friedrich Dahl in 1912.[2] The name is a combination of the Ancient Greek "pseudo-" (ψευδής), meaning "false", and the salticid genus Euophrys.[2] It was briefly synonymized with Euophrys,[3] but this decision was later reversed.[4][5]

Species

As of August 2019 it contains ten species, found only in Europe, Asia, and the United States:[1]
