Paraplexippus is a genus of Caribbean jumping spiders that was first described by P. Franganillo B. in 1930.[2] (As of August 2019) it contains only two species, found only on the Greater Antilles: P. quadrisignatus and P. sexsignatus.[1] The name is a combination of the Ancient Greek "para" (παρά), meaning "alongside", and the salticid genus Plexippus.[2]
