Not 100% sure on the species; I can tell you it's a Phanias, but am not certain it's P. harfordi (that seems to be the best fit, however). None of the Phanias species seem to have a common name beyond "jumping spider" (which would accurately describe over 5,000 spiders in the world!). I vote we call the one the Eyebrow Jumping Spider after those rusty marks on her head.
