Jumping Spider

Paraphidippus aurantius

Description:

Dime sized, black with Kelly green markings

Habitat:

Seen on a plastic chair outside a cafe in Philadelphia.

Notes:

This guy was frisky and darted out at people who sat in the chair as if defending its territory - then it got busy creating strands of silk.
