Yimbulunga foordi

Both the carapace and abdomen are rounded, which is reflected in the genus name, the Zulu word for spherical.

The pedipalps are brown with a small lobe on the palpal bulb and a thin embolus that coils all the way round.

Yimbulunga foordi is a species of jumping spiders that was first described by Wanda Wesołowska, Galina Azarkina and Anthony Russell-Smith in 2014.

Yimbulunga jumping spiders are small, with a distinctive stout form to their body.

[3] The species name is derived from a Zulu word that means spherical, and relates to the rounded form of the body.

[6] In 2017, the genus was grouped with seven other genera of jumping spiders under the name Euophryines by Jerzy Prószyński.

The structure of the pedipalps are reminiscent of the genius Euophrys, including the width of the embolus.
