I almost forgot to add, there's a global mission for Jumping Spiders that you might want to join as well: http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/19167135

alfrediguana, nice Jumper! You can just put "Jumping Spider" as the common name, if you like. :-) I agree that this looks like a male. Here is another online resource (with more images and some info): http://bugguide.net/node/view/27097
