Jumping spider ID

[SkittlesTheJumpingSpider]

Hello everyone!

I just found a little jumper on the wall of my house, and I'm considering keeping him. (I think it's a male, because it's pedipalps are bulbus.) I'm not sure of the species and age, (I don't have an exact measurement, but he's pretty small) so I'm wondering if anyone is able to ID him. My location is Southern Canada. (Sorry the pictures aren't the greatest)




I'm also open to any name suggestions for this little cutie!

Thanks!

these photos are so blurry, i really reccomend a macro phone clip on lens for photographing little creatures, but its a male attulus fasciger, lol, i have hands on experience with raising them. hes probably an adult, so hes not going to grow anymore.

Thank you for the reply! Wow... I guess this species' common name really suits it!

Not all of us have the option of a clip on lens. I've found that it helps to play with the angles and lighting until you get a fairly decent picture. I sometimes have to take pictures on my phone, screenshot the picture on my phone, and then share the screenshot. I have a Samsung Galaxy a10e, but hopefully, the tips will help someone who doesn't have a clip on lens. lol

you can still get a clip on, it just has to be a different one!

Don't really have the time or money to worry about getting one at the moment. Maybe in the future. Just gonna have to make do with my regular phone camera until then.
