Thianella

Thianella is a monotypic genus of jumping spiders containing the single species, Thianella disjuncta. It was first described by Embrik Strand in 1907,[2] and is found only on Java.[1] Based on a male specimen, Roewer placed it close to Thiania, but his placements of salticids have often been questionable and no drawings currently exist.[3] The name is an alteration of the salticid genus Thiania, and the species name is from Latin disiunctus "separated".
