Thalassius albocinctus commonly called the fishing spider is a species of spider found in tropical Asia from India to the Philippines. It is named after its habit of catching small fish. The spider is striking in appearance and can be easily recognised by the presence of a black glossy broad median band bordered by a white lateral band on the cephalothorax and abdomen. The legs are long and yellowish brown.
