Evarcha is a genus of spiders in the family Salticidae (jumping spiders) with 85 species (and one recognized subspecies) distributed across the world.[1]
Habitat
These spiders are often found on shrubs and short plants in damp areas, resting in silken cells.
Description
Spiders in this genus generally look rather sturdy and are not very colorful, often brownish.
Evarcha culicivora can be an uncommon predator due to the fact it feeds on vertebrate blood by choosing blood-carrying mosquitoes as well-liked prey.[2]
Distribution
Most species occur in Asia, Africa and parts of Europe, with E. amabilis and E. hoyi found only in the United States. E. proszynskii is found from Russia to Japan and Canada to United States.
