Male Naphrys
Looks like a subadult.

Sitticus legs IV are relatively longer.

Great jumper!
Really nice photos as well!

My best bet is that this is a male Naphrys pulex.

But I'm not entirely familiar with this genus, so it could be a male Sitticus, not sure...

I'm going to say Naphrys pulex male for now.

Compare this view of the spider with this image:

Thanks Opo!
Looks like you found the right ID. A new one for me and a very energetic little fellow. Kept trying to hop on my camera lens :^) I can leave it in ID request a little longer since you're not sure yet.

Appreciate the image compliment too!
