Salticid - Phidippus clarus - female

Salticid - Phidippus clarus - Female
Norfolk, Virginia, USA
August 23, 2009
Size: ~13mm
Found this beautiful spider on a smartweed plant. I think it an adult female Phiddipus clarus. She was a large jumper and very docile. Loved to jump on my finger while I was shooting pictures. Notice one of her front eyes has been damaged.
