Prodidomus is a genus of long-spinneret ground spiders in the family Prodidomidae, first described by Nicholas Marcellus Hentz in 1847. The genus comprises 54 species as of September 2025. Members are small spiders, with males measuring 1.9–4.3 mm and females 1.8–5.0 mm in total length. They are distinguished by their elongated anterior lateral spinnerets, which measure 10–20% of abdominal length, and their distinctive eye arrangement with greatly enlarged, canoe-shaped posterior lateral eyes.
