Rhene is a spider genus of the family Salticidae (jumping spiders).
Taxonomy
[edit]The genus was originally named Rhanis by C. L. Koch in 1846. However, this name had already been used for a beetle genus in 1834. Accordingly, Tamerlan Thorell provided the replacement name Rhene in 1869.[2] The name Rhene is derived from the Greek woman's name Rhene (Ῥήνη).[2]
