Pseudeuophrys is a genus of jumping spiders that was first described by Friedrich Dahl in 1912. The name is a combination of the Ancient Greek "pseudo-" (ψευδής), meaning "false", and the salticid genus Euophrys. It was briefly synonymized with Euophrys, but this decision was later reversed.
Adopting an intricate hunting strategy, pseudeuophrys vafra performs a tactical dance, relying on acute vision to ambush its prey. This adept jumper has evolved a unique morphology enabling exceptional agility and precision, essential for capturing elusive targets. Predominantly active during the day, its diverse diet includes smaller arthropods, meticulously selected and subdued using calculated leaps rather than webs.
