Jumping spider ID?

[katamari]

A tiny little jumper showed up at my spider station last night, and it's still hanging around on the bookshelf this morning.

It's adorable but it's so tiny I have a hard time seeing it up close even with my glasses, and even my phone's camera struggles to focus on it.

That said.. any guesses at what species it might be based on my terrible photos? I have a couple guesses but I'm curious what others think. I'm in Oregon.

Omg so tiny! From the pics I think it could be Salticus scenicus? They stay pretty small and are very common in the pacific northwest.

Agreed on the Salticus genus. This would be a harder puzzle in Europe as we have more visually similar species in the genus, but in Oregon it should be S. scenicus.

Thanks for the replies! We do have lots of zebra jumpers here. I even kept one for a while after it wandered into the spider station, and it molted into a very obvious male before I let him go free again. I don't think I've seen one quite so small before. I can only imagine how tiny the newborns must be.
