Ebelingia

Ebelingia is a genus of spiders in the family Thomisidae. In 2004, Pekka T. Lehtinen moved two species from Mecaphesa to their own genera.[2] As of February 2019, it contains 2 species found throughout Asia.[1] They can be distinguished from similar genera by a distinct abdominal pattern in both males and females as well as the unique color pattern of their body and legs.[2]
