''Agorius'' is a genus of the spider family Salticidae (jumping spiders). Undescribed species have been found in Malaysia and Sabah.〔Murphy & Murphy 2000: 303〕 No new species were described for about one hundred years, with two new species found in the early 2000s. The genera ''Agorius'' and ''Synagelides'' (and perhaps ''Pseudosynagelides'') are sometimes separated as a genus group, called subfamily ''Agoriinae'' Simon, 1901.〔Szűts, 2003〕 Several more species have been found but not yet described.〔J. Proszynski: (Provisional notes on genus ''Agorius'' )〕 ==Description== Both sexes are about six to eight mm long. ''Agorius'' is similar to ''Myrmarachne'' another good ant mimic, but can be distinguished from it by having no large, forward-pointing chelicerae, and is not found on vegetation above the ground, but only in rain forest leaf litter.〔 ''A. borneensis'', ''A. formicinus'' and ''A. semirufus'' are only known from male specimens, ''A. cinctus'' and ''A. gracilipes'' only from a female.〔Platnick 2007〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Agorius」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
