Brettus Sp.
Found him at last!!! Was searching for a specimen for a long time. Hairy jumper very similar looking to Portia sp. This one is also a hunter of other spiders. About 5mm size. Very colorful one with metallic hues all over. Not at all a shy species. Poses for photos! This one is a male.
Found on an old abandoned table in my yard.
While searching the net very little details about this species could be found :-(
