The Indian Jumping Spider (Salticidae) fauna is highly diverse, with numerous species described, synonymized, and newly recorded in recent years. Ongoing taxonomic revisions have revealed that the status of several species remains uncertain, with many potentially misplaced in unrelated genera. This catalogue provides a comprehensive account of the known Indian Jumping spiders, including detailed information on type species and distributional records. A total of 327 species representing 114 genera are listed in this work. This catalogue serves as an updated and consolidated database for researchers working on the taxonomy and distribution of Indian Salticidae.
