Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Speciesbox
Bianor senegalensis is a species of jumping spider in the genus Bianor that lives in Senegal. It was first described in 2001 by Dmitri Logunov. Only the male has been described. The spider is small with a carapace that is typically Шаблон:Convert long and an abdomen that is Шаблон:Convert long. The carapace is dark russet, rough with a pattern of white scales and the abdomen grey-brown with a pattern of white patches arranged in two rows. White scales also cover part of the clypeus. The tegulum is simple and of a unique shape that enables the species to be differentiated from others in the genus.
