Euochin

Euochin is a small genus of east Asian jumping spiders first described by Jerzy Prószyński in 2018.[1][2] The genus was split off from Euophrys. Prószyński placed the genus in his informal group "euophrydeae" within the "euophryines", the latter being equivalent to the tribe Euophryini,[2] which is part of the subfamily Salticinae.[3]
