Hi

Are there other shops where I can buy Phidippus?
I only know Todd Gearheart and the Spider Pharm!

Regards
Andi
there is a european section of the boards...your best luck would be checking there, as many of the us dealers cannot ship that far away.

First jumper of the year!

I actually saw two. one was smaller and just black and white zebra striped. and then it ran away as I came back with my camera. so here is another I found and got some shots of. sorry they arent that good I dont have a tripod so its hard to get clear shots.

Cool shots! Well, the temps are creeping up so soon there'll be lots of these stalking the walls outside the house.

Probable Phidippus ostiosus


And another. Seems to be color variation. Note the similarities in dorsal abdomen striping and the white face. Also, the legs. Both about 1.5 cm with legs.

How big are they? Europe isn't gifted with big jumping spiders. Phidippus species are lot bigger than the native species.

the one in the pictures is about a half inch or so.. perhaps a little more. it is quite large it will kill a full sized cricket with ease.

The ostiosus was found crawling on the screen of our porch. The audux on a road guard rail while walking back to the car from picking blackberries alongside the road.

Man that was some great pics, where did you find those ?
