Cosmophasis gemmans is a species of jumping spider in the family Salticidae.[1][2] Only the male has been described.[1] The type specimen is deposited at the Museo Civico di Storia Naturale di Genova.[3] These spiders are typically found on the Indonesian island of Sumatra.[4]
Taxonomy
[edit]The species was first described as Maevia gemmans by Tamerlan Thorell in 1890 in Diagnoses aranearum aliquot novarum in Indo-Malesia inventarum,[1] based on a male specimen from Sumatra collected by Odoardo Beccari in 1878, which is now stored at the Museo Civico di Storia Naturale di Genova.[3] In 1955, Carl Friedrich Roewer transferred the species to the genus Cosmophasis.[1]
