Yes
I definitely like Zygoballus rufipes better. I had always noticed that on mine the front femora were solidly black. Thank you. I even have pictures of this one throwing its forelegs up in the air.

Not so sure
The first pair of legs appears to be dark rather than banded along its length. See Jay's picture of a female S. concolor below for comparison. Maybe female Zygoballus rufipes?
