Salticinae is a subfamily of jumping spiders (family Salticidae). It includes over 90% of the known species of jumping spiders.[1] The subfamily is divided into two unranked clades: Amycoida and Salticoida.[1]
Description
Members of the subfamily Salticinae have a number of features in common that distinguish them from the remaining salticids. Females lack a tarsal claw on the pedipalp. The palpal bulb of male basal salticids has a distinctive median apophysis, which is absent in the subfamily, and the cymbium is constricted at the tibial joint. Members also have a more complex tracheal system, which may be connected with their movements, which are more abrupt than other salticids, giving them a recognizable gait.[1]
Taxonomy
Phylogeny
The relationships among the basal salticids are not yet fully resolved; summary cladograms published in both 2014 and 2015 show unresolved branching for five basal subfamilies. However, Hisponinae is resolved as sister to Salticinae, which is the most derived subfamily.[2][1]

Classification
In 2015, Wayne Maddison divided the subfamily into 27 tribes with a total of about 540 extant genera. The tribes were grouped into a number of clades.[1]
Subfamily Salticinae
- clade Amycoida – 9 tribes
- clade Salticoida – 18 tribes in total, most grouped into 3 subclades:
- basal – 2 tribes
- Astioida – 5 tribes
- Marpissoida – 3 tribes
- Saltafresia – 8 tribes
