Presumed Eratigena atrica munching down on a mealworm. The speed of this spider amazes me.

Some shots of my recently hatched bold jumping spider slings (Phidippus audax). See the photos with the US penny for size reference - they are so small it is hard to get a shot of them holding still.

I live on a barrier island outside of Charleston, South Carolina. This beauty was on my deck this morning, I thought it was a bumble bee at first then realized it was some type of wolf spider. The markings are so unusual on the back! Does anyone know the species? Thank you! I scooped him onto a piece of paper to put into the grass and observed him in a defensive posture.

That's a jumping spider. Phidippus audax is my guess. Or a male Phidippus Regius.
