The Australian fauna includes large numbers of undescribed, tiny, litter-living, jumping spiders. In this paper four monotypic new genera (Ananeon howardensis n. g. n. sp., Barraina anfracta n. g. n.sp., Frewena maculata n.g. n.s., and Pungalina weiri n.g, n.sp.) are described. Two species (Neon taylori n.sp. and Neon australis n. sp.) representing the two distinctive morphological patterns found in Australian species of this genus are also described. The former, similar in the morphology of the palp and genitalia to that found in many species from eastern Australia, is most similar in morphology to N. sumatranus Logunov 1998 from Indonesia and N. kovblyuki Logunov 2004 from the Crimea. The latter, and other similar species from South Australia and Western Australia, has palp morphology and fringing on L1 very similar to that seen in N. nojimai Ikeda 1995 from Japan.
澳大利亚的动物群包括大量未被描述的、体型微小、生活在落叶层中的跳蛛。本文描述了四个单型新属(霍华德阿纳内蛛属新属新种Ananeon howardensis、曲折巴拉纳蛛属新属新种Barraina anfracta、黄斑弗鲁韦纳蛛属新属新种Frewena maculata和韦里彭加林蛛属新属新种Pungalina weiri)。还描述了代表该属澳大利亚物种中发现的两种独特形态模式的两个物种(泰勒霓虹蛛新种Neon taylori和澳大利亚霓虹蛛新种Neon australis)。前者触肢和生殖器的形态与澳大利亚东部许多物种的形态相似,在形态上与来自印度尼西亚的1998年描述的苏门答腊霓虹蛛N. sumatranus Logunov和来自克里米亚的2004年描述的科夫布留基霓虹蛛N. kovblyuki最为相似。后者以及来自南澳大利亚和西澳大利亚的其他类似物种,触肢形态和第一腿节的缘饰与1995年描述的来自日本的野间霓虹蛛N. nojimai Ikeda非常相似。
