Thats a macro shot and looks large,but it's about 3/8 inch.I wanted to get a front view Cindy,but it kept jumping at the camera.I finally gave up as I was paintin my boat bottom at the time...
It looks like it's Phidippus genus but can't say for sure. If the area around the mouth (Chelicera) had a bluish tinge, then it's definitely Phidippus.
What was the size. I love the markings. My jumping spiders are all 1/4 of an inch about.
Seems to be quite a large one.. :-) Nice catch!
