Taxonomy
The genus Phintella was circumscribed in 1906 by W. Bösenberg and Embrik Strand. The genus name derives from the genus Phintia, which it resembles.[2]
The genus Phintia was itself renamed Phintodes, which was subsequently absorbed into Tylogonus.[3] There are similarities between spiders within genus Phintella and those in Chira, Chrysilla, Euophrys, Icius, Jotus and Telamonia.[4] Genetic analysis confirms that it is related to the genera Helvetia and Menemerus.[5] It is a member of the tribe Heliophaninae, renamed Chrysillini by Wayne Maddison in 2015.[6] Chrysillines are monophyletic.[6] The tribe is ubiquitous across most of the continents of the world.[5] It is allocated to the subclade Saltafresia in the clade Salticoida.[6] In 2017, Jerzy Prószyński grouped the genus with 32 other genera of jumping spiders under the name Chrysillines in the supergroup Chrysilloida.[4]
