We describe a new plexippine genus, , supported by phylogenomic data from ultraconserved elements (UCEs), Sanger sequences of four genes, and morphological evidence. The type species, (Caleb, Christudhas, Laltanpuii & Chitra, 2014), is transferred from , as is (Caleb, 2022), The phylogenomic data places among the plexippines near C.L. Koch, 1846 and Thorell, 1887, while the constrained four-gene phylogeny indicates that is distinct from . Additionally, we describe a new species,
