Ballus segmentatus

Ballus segmentatus, is a species of spider of the genus Ballus. It is endemic to Sri Lanka. In 2022, it was suggested to be conspecific with Ballus sellatus.

Taxonomy
In 1900, Eugene Simon described two species of Ballus from Sri Lanka. The type of B. segmentatus was a male, the type of B. sellatus was a female. A study in 2022 suggested that although there is some variation in color pattern, markings, and size, this does not permit the recognition of two (or more) species.
