The female has copulatory organs that are similar to other species in the genus, with a septum, or wall, in the middle of ita epigyne.

It can be distinguished by its clearer and wider copulatory openings, hidden in deep pits, and longer insemination ducts.

Pellenes luculentus is a species of jumping spider that was first described by Wanda Wesołowska and Antonius van Harten in 2007.

[1] It was one of over 500 species identified by the Polish arachnologist Wesołowska during her career, more than any other contemporary writer and second only to Eugène Simon.

[9] Phylogenetic analysis of molecular data demonstrates that the genus is most closely related to Habronattus and Havaika.

The female has an oval carapace, the hard upper surface of the cephalothorax, that is fawn and covered in white scales, interspersed with a scattering of brown bristles.

The copulatory openings lead to wide insemination ducts and oval spermathecae, or receptacles, which have thick walls.

[5] Pellenes spiders can be found across the Afrotropical, Holarctic and Indomalayan realms, but are particularly common around the Mediterranean Sea and in Central Asia.
