Field Notes

Description:

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.

Habitat:

Found on an old abandoned table in my yard.

Notes:

While searching the net very little details about this species could be found :-(
