Misumenops bellulus

Distribution

Most species of this genus occur in the Americas from Canada to Argentina, with only a few exceptions:

Sixteen species are found on Hawaii, one (M. dalmasi) on the Marquesas Islands, one M. melloloitaoi on Tahiti, and one M. rapaensis on Easter Island.
Two species (M. forcatus and M. zhangmuensis) occur in China, M. armatus in Central Asia, M. turanicus in Uzbekistan, M. khandalaensis in India, M. morrisi on the Philippines, M. nepenthicola in Singapore and Borneo.
M. rubrodecoratus occurs in Africa, M. decolor only in Ethiopia.
