Rhondes is a genus of New Caledonian jumping spiders that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1901.[2] It was briefly considered a synonym of Hasarius,[3] but was revalidated after the results of a 2008 molecular study. It is now grouped with several other Australasian genera in the unranked clade Astioida.[4]

[edit]As of August 2019[update] it contains six species, found only on New Caledonia:[1]
