Female Apache Jumping Spider

Description

The Phidippus apacheanus Apache Jumping Spider is arguably the most attractive native jumper species in the United States. Adult males are very brightly colored, often two-tone and females are typically a orangey-gray color with black legs.

The specimens offered through this product page are females only. They are subadults with lots of life left.

When I mow an acre of my property, I first clear it of jumping spiders that I can find. Better to share them than mow them. This is a wild caught specimen in that sense.

The prettiest US jumper? You can see photos of them at this Bugguide through THIS LINK
