Chinattus is new to the Japanese fauna. One new species is described as
Chinattus ogatai. Two species,
Chinattus dactyloides comb. nov. and
Chinattus furcatus are newly recorded from Japan.
C. dactyloides is transferred from the genus
Hasarius. The female of
C. furcatus is described for the first time. Spiders of this genus are distinguishable from other Japanese salticid spiders by their general appearances or genital morphologies.
