Pensacolops is a monotypic genus of Brazilian jumping spiders containing the single species, Pensacolops rubrovittata. It was first described by M. J. Bauab V. in 1983,[1] and is only found in Brazil.[2] The name is a combination of the salticid genus Pensacola and the Ancient Greek "-ops" (Greek, Ancient (to 1453);: ὄψ), meaning "to look like". The species name is a combination of the Latin rubrus, meaning "red", and vittatus, which means "striped".
