Two genera from the tribe   Ballini   (  Araneae  ,   Salticidae  ),    Pachyballus    Simon, 1900 and    Peplometus    Simon, 1900, are remarkable for their resemblance to beetles. Their biology is, however, poorly known and taxonomy has hitherto been rarely analysed. Thirteen species are included in this taxonomic revision of the two genera. Six of them are new to the science:    Pachyballus   caelestis    sp. nov.  (♂♀, Congo D.R.),    Pachyballus   miniscutulus    sp. nov.  (♂♀, South Africa),    Pachyballus   mombasensis    sp. nov.  (♂♀, Kenya),    Pachyballus   ornatus    sp. nov.  (♂♀, Congo D.R. and Tanzania),    Peplometus   congoensis    sp. nov.  (♂♀, Congo and Congo D.R.), and    Peplometus   nimba    sp. nov.  (♂, Guinea). One species (   Pachyballus   cordiformis    Berland et Millot, 1941) and a subspecies (   P.   flavipes   aurantius    Caporiacco, 1949) are recognised as synonyms of    Pachyballus   flavipes    Simon, 1910. One new combination is proposed:    Peplometus   oyo    (Wesołowska et Russell-Smith, 2011)  comb. nov.  (ex    Pachyballus   ). The previously unknown females of    Pachyballus   transversus    Simon, 1900 and    Peplometus   chlorophthalmus    Simon, 1900, along with the males of    Pachyballus   castaneus    Simon, 1900 and    Peplometus   biscutellatus    (Simon, 1887) are newly diagnosed and described. Neotypes for    Pachyballus   castaneus    and    P.   flavipes    are designated. Numerous new data on the distribution are provided here and a key to    Pachyballus    females and to the males of    Peplometus    is presented. Identity of one species remains doubtful,    Pachyballus   gambeyi    (Simon, 1880).
