Description
This is possibly our largest jumping spider in Australia – reaching 18mm in body length and is only rivalled by a few others, such as Bavia aericeps.
They are usually a bright green in colour but can be yellow or orange. Females have red spots bordered by white on top of their heads, while males have a fringe of hair around the face that gives them a “monkey face” appearance. Juveniles are lemon-yellow or bright green.
These juveniles are quite fragile and will bite if mishandled. We don’t recommend handling these small juvies as they can easily get hurt.
- Currently eating pinhead crickets and fruit flies
*unsexed green juveniles available*
*photos also shows yellow form, but this batch is bright green
Enclosure: We recommend the mini bug box with jumper kit

Mopsus Mormon arrived beautifully packaged and keen to get out. Found how quick they are when she ran up my arm. She has eaten and is settling very well. Very happy with the level of expertise shown and service provided.

This is maybe the prettiest jumper I have ever seen (and I’ve seen a Maratus volans in the wild before!). Absolutely gorgeous colour, almost luminous, reminds me of melon ramune soda so I have named them Melon. Extremely energetic and curious, seems to jump far more than any jumper I’ve ever had and rarely seems to sit still. I am so happy with this lively little critter and excited to see whether they grow up into an elegant green lady or a silly monkey guy!
