Fuzzy red, black, & white spider - Phidippus carneus - male

Fuzzy red, black, & white spider - Phidippus carneus - Male
Sierra Vista, Cochise County, Arizona, USA
October 11, 2017
Size: About 1/2 inch
I spotted this guy in our house this afternoon, but I can't find it online. The closest looks like Phidippus Audax (Bold Jumper). Any thoughts or ideas as to what this might be? Thanks!

RIGHT family
Clearly a Jumping Spider, so you have the right Family, but i found this one, P. Carneus that might be a better match. Lets see what the spider experts think.

Re: fuzzy red, black, & white spider
Thanks! So, is that the female in your pic? Just curious.

 
Male or female
Dunno. I was happy to find one with some characteristics that matched yours!!
Others might be able to tell.

Thanks!! I've been a big fan of this site for a few years, and I've come on here many times to look up various bugs. This is my first time uploading a pic, though.
