The genus Hentzia belongs in the subfamily Dendryphantinae of the family Salticidae. It appears to be closely related to %22Beata%22 wickhami and the genus Anicius. Twenty species are recognized in this revision, occurring from Nova Scotia and Quebec [Canada] in the north to northern South America in the south. The genus ranges along the coastal areas of Mexico on both sides of the continent north to Arizona in the west and through central Texas to Minnesota. Six new species are described. These are H. calypso from Jamaica, H. chekika from Florida [USA], the Bahamas and Cuba, H. cubana from Cuba, H. pima from Arizona, H. whitcombi from Guadeloupe, Puerto Rico and a few other Caribbean islands, and H. zombia from Hispaniola [West Indies]. The genera Parahentzia Bryant 1943, and Maeviobeata Caporiacco 1947, are here made junior synonyms of Hentzia. Parahentzia insignita Chickering 1946, is made a junior synonym of Anoka parallela Peckham 1894. Anoka peckhami Cockerell 1893, and Wala albovittata Keyserling 1885, become junior synonyms of Icius vittatus Keyserling 1885. All of these are placed in the genus Hentzia. Balmaceda peckhami Bryant 1940 is found to be the female of H. tibialis Bryant 1940. The female paratype of Hentzia tibialis Bryant 1940, is found to be the female of Hentzia chekika n. sp. Finally Wala noda Chamberlin 1916, is transferred from Hentzia to Corythalia.
