for 508 valid species in 61 genera (plus 73 invalid names) [Canard, 2005]. There is no doubt that the actual number of Salticidae occurring in South Asia is hardly less than that in Europe (sensu Canard [2005]), but likely to be higher. Hence, it is not surprising that any new collection of Salticidae from South Asia brings new records and species. In recent years, two salticid collections from India and Nepal fell into the author's hands; both prove to be interesting, containing both undescribed species and new records to the regional faunas.The aims of the present paper are as follows:(1) to provide new faunistic data from Nepal and India for 11 salticid species; (2) to describe a new Carrhotus species from India; and (3) to describe unknown females for two poorly known or recently described species. Material and methodsThis work is based on museum collections of jumping spiders which were sent to the author for identification. A total of 35 adult specimens, including those of Thyene imperialis (Rossi, 1846) from the Mediterranean used for comparative purposes, belonging to 12 species of Salticidae have been studied. The depositories of the studied material are abbreviates in the text as follows: BMNH -British Museum of Natural History, London, UK (J. Beccaloni);
