Gastromicans

Gastromicans is a genus of jumping spiders that was first described by Cândido Firmino de Mello-Leitão in 1917.

==Etymology== The genus name Gastromicans is derived from the Greek gaster (Ancient Greek γᾰστήρ, belly, abdomen) and Latin micans (vibrating, twinkling, trembling), presumably referring to the distinctive iridescent scales found on the abdomen of these spiders, which Mello-Leitão described in detail in the original diagnosis.
