Got out on a hike this weekend. I wanted to find some jumpers because I haven't found any yet this year. We found three species and I have never found Eris militaris in Minnesota before. First time I have been out and kept macro equipment on the camera the entire hike. I guess I didn't need to be caring around that extra 40lbs+ of gear!


Eris militaris









Two other species found.

Salticus scenicus


Sitticus fasciger




Thanks for looking! :D

Great shots! The palps on that S. fasciger are adorable. He looks like he's wearing little tiny wool mittens. =)

The Eris is cute and all, but the tufty palps on the Sitticus overshadow all of the things. I want to touch them. @__@
