Jumping Spider (Hypoblemum albovittatum) (5/12)

Araneae: Salticidae

Hypoblemum albovittatum  

I found a Jumping Spider in the back of my vehicle and brought it in to my desk where I found again the one that had escaped yesterday.

Turns out one was a boy and one was a girl.

Both were at liberty to run away but seemed to completely forget about me when they recognised the presence of each other.

Here the male peers up at the female who is actually still inside the Tupperware container and he appears to be getting excited even though he can only see her at a distance through the murky plastic.
