Salticidae

The fine feathers that cover the entire body with a shiny black color and the scary body shape attract my attention. When I found this spider it was walking quite slowly but when I touched it it immediately jumped.

With four pairs of long legs, this spider is very agile in jumping. No wonder this spider is nicknamed the jumping spider or its Latin name Salticidae. This species has beautiful colors even though its shape is scary with its big protruding eyes.
