Hi,
This picture was taken in Dallas, Texas. Is it the Phidippus Audax?
What is the blue body part?
Thank-you,
Eleanor Burt

I'm sending you my best spider pics from the last couple months.
Thought you might like to have them for your image library, maybe
display a couple in the "known" spider pages. I'm getting better at
capturing close-ups. One of these days I'll get a real good shot of
that Jumper. Until then... Keep up the good work, I love your site!
Cheers, Terry Lucas
Lakewood, Ca.

Hi I found this spider in my yard. I have never seen anything
like it before. Is it some sort of jumping spider, looking on your
webpage, the jumping spider is the only one that resembles it. Thanks

Hello again, Glenda
Thanks for posting my agriope pics on your wonderful site. I found a
couple of close ups which you might find interesting. One is a type
of jumping spider, the other I think is a nursery web spider.
Best wishes
Sue

Hello,
I enjoyed your site and wanted to send this photo I took on my back
deck yesterday. I live in Boise, Idaho, USA and with the help of
your down under website, was able to positively identify this pretty
little beast. I always thought that it would take a badass spider to
take a yellow jacket, but this
is a sizable female probably 3/4" (18mm) long. They bite, but not
poisonous. Very cool. I assure you this is my photo (not a copycat)
and I'd be honored to have it posted on your excellent site.
Thank You!

Female Phidippus Johnsoni at home. I found this jumping
spider in her little silken tent, you can see the red abdomen
through the silk.

Jumping spider Phidippus Johnsoni, one of our larger
and more colorful jumpers. This one was quite friendly, having
descended onto my friend's big bald head one morning when we were
out photographing insects in the
garden. The markings on the abdomen show it to be a female, the
males have a solid red abdomen.
This one seems rather overawed by the immense can of
beer!
