Yup :) But it is better to put jumping spiders into correct thread ;)


Thank you :)

Yes, these "Tigers" are one of the most beautiful spiders in European fauna :D

I love this thread, as usual stunning pictures, no one can argue about that:D . Allow me to do some nitpicking though: Misumenops tricuspidatus is now known as Ebrechtella tricuspidata; and are you sure its Steatoda grossa? Looks like S. bipunctata to me.:?
Enough, again wonderful pictures.:)

Thanks, especially for the identification :)
As a coleopterologist I always neglect spider taxonomy ;)
Yup, you are right. I was just reading something about S. grossa and wrote a wrong name.

Wow, those nematodes are nasty suckers!! I can't fathom how they fit in the spider without killing it before full grown. :eek:

Agelena labyrinthica looks like my grass spider when he was penultimate.
