Salticid Ant Eater Spider

Zenodorus orbiculatus (Pystira orbiculata)

Notes:

Seen in our garden. This tiny spider was living up to its name! The fifth shot is a spotting the next day, about a metre from the original one - possibly the same specimen.

Thanks KarenL! I'll post some more shots soon, I saw another one nearby a couple of days later. It was probably the same one.

Great series Shanna! I found one of his distant cousins feasting on some kind of larva yesterday!
