Black jumping spider with brown around and under abdomen - Phidippus
Española, Rio Arriba County, New Mexico, USA
October 31, 2009
Size: About 1.2 cm body length
Salticidae? Sorry, I didn't look through all 5,271,009 pictures for this one. This or something that looks like it is not uncommon around my house, though.

And what are the blue things that show up in frontal pictures of the faces of these creatures? Fangs?

Phidippus
This reminds me of a spider that I photographed up here in Saskatchewan
