White Jawed Jumping Spider

Hentzia mitrata

Habitat:

Woodland habitat of the Hennepin Canal State Park Visitor Center.

Notes:

Last year I found the female of this species, and looked carefully for a male. Finally, I found this little guy yesterday and he was more than happy to pose for some photos:) He is about 5mm long.

The website is looking good Erik! I like the jumper examples you have on there. They are beautiful, especially number 18!

No problem. Thanks to you too. If I hadn't seen that spotting, I wouldn't know what a White Jawed Jumping spider is. Check out my growing website. Here's the address: http.//www.Jumping-Spider.wikia.com.
