Another cool one is portia jumping spiders, world's most intelligent known species
That purse web spider is insane!!! Awesome critterWhat I particularly love about spiders is just how diverse they are in both of looks and hunting strategy.
How I love my tarantulas but apart from my Idiothele mira they're pretty much the same when it comes to feeding.
My spiders on the other hand......... these vids and pics are in my spider thread but here they are again.
Deinopis sp aka Ogre faced/net casting spider.

Aye. First time I managed to actually see her feed since I got her a little while ago. She recently moulted so knew she'd be hungry.That purse web spider is insane!!! Awesome critter
Woah, I could only find scytodes fusca on my search, but wow, what a beautiful looking spider! I hope you find more to study! I'd be very interested to read a report on the species illustrated above.Rhene flavicomans~ the wasp mimic jumping spider, they have a flat and wide carapace giving them quite a unique look for a jumping spider~
View attachment 291492 Forgot the species name, but this black scytodes that I call “the xenomorph spitting spiders” are up there as one of my favourites too

Update: I've also grown a liking to Hacklemesh Weavers (Metaltella simoni), and Long-bodied cellar spiders (Pholcus phalangioides)I just LOVE jumping spiders in general, but if I had to pick, i'd say regal/ bold jumpers (Phidippus audax).
My favorite as wellJumpers all day every day.
