Telamonia

Telamonia is a genus of jumping spiders that was first described by Tamerlan Thorell in 1887.^[2] They are colorful spiders, with patterns that vary considerably between sexes and species. Two longitudinal stripes along the abdomen are common, and the carapace is often colored. They have a slender opisthosoma and long legs.^[2]
