I think that this jumping spider might be in the genus Pelegrina.

Moved to genus for now
Moved from Jumping Spiders. Looks like a young jumper is they prey rather than a mate.

Eris
Thanks for determining that this jumping spider is in the genus Eris, Chad. I would not have guessed that Eris was a possibility, so this is helpful to know as I try to learn more about the spiders in my local area. It appears that jumping spiders need to keep their distance from other jumping spiders!
