Jumping Spider

Cosmophasis

Description:

I was checking out some ant activity and spotted this little chap on my finger so tried to move it onto the plant nearby but it jumped from me onto my camera so I got it back on my hand and took the photos with the other hand, hence the poor quality .......... I shall be going back tomorrow to see if I can find it again

It's under the Cosmophasis genus.
It is a female.
It looks close to a female Cosmophasis umbratica but with some slight difference at the abdomen and the shape.
