Copocrossa sp.
A tiny jumping spider found on a tree with extremely long arms. Third picture shows the size
Thanks ChunXingWong for the always helpful IDs on my invertebrates
Yeah, that makes sense. The pseudoscorpions from Australia have long abdomens.
Or mimicking a Pseudoscorpion? Don't why though.
A Copocrossa jumping spider.Possibly mimicking a small scorpion.
Thanks, wish I knew what it was, the long arms ended in single pointed spear. First time seeing this species.
That is a most unusual spider. Have never seen one of those before, and so close to home (Cairns). Good spotting!
Very cool spider :)
