Zenodorus is a genus of the jumping spiders distributed from the Moluccas to Australia, including several islands of the Pacific.[2] It was once considered a junior synonym of Omoedus,[3] but this was later rejected by Jerzy Prószyński in 2017.[4] At least one species, Z. orbiculatus, specializes on hunting ants.[5]

Prószyński placed Zenodorus in his informal group "euophryines".[4] When synonymized with Omoedus, it was placed in the large tribe Euophryini, part of the Salticoida clade of the subfamily Salticinae in Maddison's 2015 classification of the family Salticidae.[6]
