Talavera is a genus of very small jumping spiders that was first described by George and Elizabeth Peckham in 1909.[2] They average about 2 millimetres (0.079 in) in length, and are very similar to each other. In particular, the Central European species are difficult to distinguish, even when their genital features are studied under a microscope.[3] The name refers to Talavera, a region of Spain where many have been found.
