another chubby little jumper

Hey Tom
I believe this is Habrocestum pulex compare here.
Here is some more info if you decide to make a page-
Salticidae> Euophryinae> Habrocestum>

 
Genus synonyms?
The Canadian Arachnologist site has this picture the first image on page 8 identified as Naphrys pulex. Are Naphrys and Habrocestum the same?

 
Good point.
It appears the four(?) species of Habrocestum in the US are now in the genus Naphrys as of 2002 (Edwards). I would say this is N. pulex.
Thanks for your help, Tom.

It appears most of the images under what used to be Habrocestum are yours. It looks like most of them are N. pulex. Let me know if you disagree with image placement.

 
Looks good
Thanks for making all the changes, Jeff.

 
Moved
Thanks for the ID jeff, I thought this was a Sitticus species, but there's a lot of these little jumpers.
