Siler cupreus Simon, 1889 ; type locality Yokohama, Japan.

Comments.

Siler , a member of Chrysillini, comprises 12 species, mainly distributed in east and southeast Asia ( Maddison 2015; WSC 2024). The genus has not been revised recently. Like most salticid genera, a high rate (58.3 %) of its species are known only from a single sex. In addition, three species are only known from the original description, and S. pulcher Simon, 1901 has never been illustrated ( WSC 2024).
