N.B.: Considered a senior synonym of Lyssomanidae by Galiano, 1976b: 67; for illustrations of scale morphology of about 60 species, see Hill, 1979; for a database with diagnostic drawings maintained by J. Prószyński, see: http://www.peckhamia.com/salticidae; for the phylogeny within the family see Maddison & Hedin, 2003b, Maddison, 2015, Maddison et al., 2017 and Prószyński, 2017b.

In synonymy:

Petrunkevitchium Strand, 1929 = Anaurus Simon, 1900 (Bonnet, 1955: 314, superfluous replacement name)

Gen. Anaurus Simon, 1900 urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:02814

N.B.: the replacement name Petrunkevitchium Strand, 1929: 12 [urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidergen:05841] is superfluous according to Bonnet, 1955: 314, because Anaurus is not preoccupied in Coelenterata, where is has been used by Rafinisque, 1815 as a nomen nudum.
