Género tipo: Salticus Latreille, 1804

Diagnosis: Small to large araneomorph spiders; two tarsal claws; ecribellate; entelegyne; eight eyes; carapace squarefronted with four, forwardly directed eyes of which the anterior median eyes are very large.

Caracteres descriptivos: Caparazón: square-fronted; length varies from short to long; cephalic region high in some genera; eye region frequently decorated with clusters of long setae. Esternón: shape variable, sometimes narrower in front. Ojos: eight; in three or four (Lyssomaninae) rows; eyes occupying entire width of carapace; anterior median eyes very large, anterior lateral eyes slightly smaller, both pairs directed forward; other eyes directed to the sides or backward. Quelíceros: inner margin with one tooth (unidentate), several teeth (pluridentate) or a split tooth (fissidentate); chelicerae sometimes enlarged and porrect in males. Piezas bucales: labium rectangular or rounded and narrowed in front; endites fairly long, broadened distally with well developed scopula and serrula. Patas: two claws usually with claw tufts; rather short; anterior pair in some genera longer or stronger than other legs, frequently decorated with tufts of setae. Palpo femenino: tarsus without claw. Abdomen: variable, short to oblong or elongated in some genera. Hileras: short, anterior and posterior pairs similar in lengh; without cylindrical glands and spigots. Sistema respiratorio: two booklungs; tracheal spiracle close to spinnerets. Genitalia: entelegyne; epigyne variable; male palp with tibial apophyses, sometimes also with femoral protuberance; embolus variable in shape. Tamaño corporal: 3-17 mm. Color: sometimes with bright, attractive colouration consisting of bands, stripes or speckles; body sometimes bearing special setae, sometimes iridescent.

Estatus taxonómico: The position of the Salticidae remains problematic. Coddington & Levi (1991) and Coddington et al. (2004) group them in the Dionycha based on the absence of cylindrical gland spigots.

Distribución: mundial.

Estilo de vida: Diurnal, cursorial hunting spiders with well developed vision. They occur in a wide variety of habitats.
