Zulunigma is a South African spider genus of the Salticidae family (jumping spiders), with only one described species, Zulunigma incognita. The genus was originally called Aenigma by Wesolowska and Haddad in 2009,[2] but it was discovered that at least three other animal genera had been given this name, and it was replaced by Zulunigma by Wesolowska and Cumming in 2011.[1]
