Habronattus clypeatus

Description

Habronattus clypeatus is a common jumping spider species that ranges in the north from Montana and down into the SW US states.

Note: We are 99% confident we have identified these correctly per a conversation with an expert on INaturalist but we do not guarantee that we have them correct, sorry.

These are a small species of jumping spider and we feed them fruit flies, even at maturity, although they could probably take a house fly down easily enough.

Offered cheaply, and unsexed. Specimens come from my property here in Arizona where I can find them in spring months in pretty much every square foot of the property.
