Stichius is a spider genus of the Salticidae family (jumping spiders). Its single described species is found in Sumatra.The species is only known from a single male described in 1890. From the drawing of the male palp in Proszynski (1984) Stichius appears to be close to Harmochirus.The species name is taken from Greek mythology (Στιχίος a commander of the Athenians in the Trojan war in Homer’s Iliad).
