Pellenes striolatus

Species of spider

Pellenes striolatus is a species of jumping spider in the genus Pellenes that lives on Socotra Island, Yemen. It was first described in 2002 by Wanda Wesołowska and Antonius van Harten. The spider is smaller than many in the genus, with a carapace that measures typically 1.4 mm (0.06 in) in length and an abdomen that is between 1.3 and 2 mm long. The female has a larger abdomen than the male. Both are generally very dark, nearly black, and have a distinctive white pattern on the abdomen. The pattern consists of a central white stripe that is flanked by white diagonal lines, and is recalled in the species name, which can be translated "thinly streaked". The spider has copulatory organs that are similar to other species in the genus. The female has a shallow pocket in the middle of its epigyne and the male has a thick embolus.
