Abstract: The type species of four little known jumping spider genera: Alfenus Simon, 1902, Pellolessertia Strand, 1929, Saraina Wanless et Clark, 1975 and Stenaelurillus Simon, 1886 are redescribed and illustrated from Central Africa. The hitherto unknown male of Saraina rubrofasciata Wanless et Clark, 1975 is described. Stenaelurillus nigritarsis Simon, 1886 is proposed as a junior synonym of Stenaelurillus nigricaudus Simon, 1886 and Stenaelurillus cristatus Wesolowska et Russell-Smith, 2000 is recorded from Ghana and new illustrations are given for the males. S. nigricaudus is recorded from Gambia for the first time.
