Jumping Spider

Subtribe Simaethina

Description:

Small jumping spider. Cephalothorax is bigger than the abdomen and so is the first pair of legs, kinda reminds me of a crab. It has red, blue, and yellow metallic luster and two white dots on the abdomen.

Habitat:

Found in my garden, a few days later spotted it again.

Notes:

It's the only time I saw this species and it might be rare. I found an exact photo https://www.inaturalist.org/observations... but it's only classified up to the subtribe level. The closest body shape and coloration I could find is in the genus Simaetha and Heratemita, so I just put it to their subtribe.
