  • Sarinda

    Sarinda is a genus of jumping spiders (Salticidae) in the tribe Sarindini, established by Peckham & Peckham in 1892. The genus contains species distributed in the Neotropics, with documented records in Uruguay including S. marcosi, S. sombraluminosa, and S. contraluz. Members of this genus exhibit myrmecomorphy—morphological and behavioral mimicry of ants. The genus is distinguished from related taxa by characters of the genitalia and somatic morphology.
