Type species.
Marpissa hamata C. L. Koch, 1846 ; type locality Naples, Italy.
Comments.
Icius , one of the most species-rich genera of Chrysillini, comprises 47 species widely distributed in five continents ( Maddison 2015; WSC 2024). The genus has not been revised recently, and 20 of its species are known only from a single sex ( WSC 2024). The species are rather diverse in habitus and copulatory organs, especially the south and east Asian and African members, indicating that it is likely polyphyletic.
