Proszynskia is a small genus of south Asian jumping spiders erected by N. Kanesharatnam and Benjamin in 2019 after a molecular phylogenetic study of south Asian spiders showed the relationship between two species previously belonging to Marpissa and Phintella.

The thin abdomen has a yellow stripe between two black stripes.
