Siler semiglaucus
It looks like a tiny ant with pincers. The colours are not really evident because it is so small. It wasn't till it jumped that I thought spider...and the eyes in the photo clinched it. I couldn't count 8 legs; it scuttled around so fast.
My garden.

Oh! WoW...wonderful. Congratulations...how truly wonderful to be the first to report a species for the first time from a country. And I am chuffed that it this spider came knocking on my door...though the photo is nothing to talk about...but to have seen it and to have YOU identify it (plus bayucca too) ...Hmmm, it has been a great day, Thanks again.
