WOW!

Those are some beautiful jumping spiders! I don't know what the second one is but for some reason it seems familiar to me.....

.....maybe I've seen it or something like it before? Don't know but I hope you find out what it is as I would like to know too. I really like the colors on these. Are the males the only ones with brightly colored fangs or do the females have them too?

Where did you find the last spider? That could help with the ID you know.

Unless I missed something, both images are of the same spider. In NA, all but two species of phids have iridescent scales on their paturons, and they are the only jumpers in NA with iridescent chompers as far as I know.

Yes, both images are of the same jumper. And, you are right on the ID. I should have known, as these are quite common in my area.

Rear shot,


Thanks,
guys!

Thanks.

As far as equipment, I used Canon's 60mm macro. Lighting is done studio style, AlienBees 800 on left, 580ex Speedlite to the right of subject. Both fired wireless via ST-E2 transmitter & Radiopoppers on a Canon EOS 40D. The spider was shot indoors. :)

Oh these are excellent! I love how shiny the eyes are in these photos. Kudos to you. I hope you find out what your unidentified jumper is ASAP.

I have an jumping spider that I see alot during the spring and summer but I don't know what it's called. All I can tell you ( since I don't have a camera ) is that it has black and white stripes.

So if any one knows please let me know so I can research them further. I know them when I see them so if any one has pics of species with those colors and patterns I could tell you if it's the one I see or not.

Thanks!
