Hi Angiud. A belated congratulations on your SOTD! You have an interesting tittle for this spotting but sadly you need to remove the tittle because that field is specially reserved for a common name only. You can use the "Jumping spider-mimicking Derbid Bug" in your description for the common name of this spotting. As for the "OMG a spider!" part, you can place it in the description or notes. Thank you.
Excellent shot, you are the best, congrats !!!
What an interesting insect! Congratulations on your SOTD!
I thought I had see it all via National Geographic over the years but they have nothing on the Project Noah community! Amazing!
Congrats angiud, your amazing example of mimicry has earned you Spotting of the Day! This tiny planthopper is a master of disguise, mimicking a jumping spider!  Facebook: https://upload.facebook.com/projectnoah/photos/a.10150595289465603.674700.10150120463815603/10154235860130603/?type=1 Twitter: https://twitter.com/projectnoah/status/476192631471366144
