Mini Jumping Spider

Description:

This was absolutely the tiniest Jumping Spider I've ever seen. It was only 3 mm long, with thick front legs and white facial hair. The markings on the abdomen were not very distinguishable until magnified. The last picture gives a better idea of it's size compared to a finger print.

Habitat:

In the garden, semi-urban area on the outskirts of San Cristobal de Las Casas, 2,200 meters.
