Algumas aranhas cerratenses para vocês.

Na ordem:

Lyssomanes sp.
Balmaceda sp.
Corythalia sp.

Curiosamente, todas são da mesma família (Salticidae). Inofensivas.

I had to give him a lens to explore because he kept trying to jump on the one I was using 🥹

Lyssomanes viridis, the magnolia jumping spider. Males of this group tend to look... strange. This one feels almost Lovecraftian with all the spindly parts on the chelicerae and pedipalps.

#Salticidae #macrophotography #Invert 🪲🪳🌿
Another view of a male Lyssomanes viridis, this time from a slightly elevated side angle, still clinging to the underside of a leaf. The spider's yellow-green body features a dark stripe running lengthwise, with legs that are similarly colored but tipped in black. Its red and white chelicerae stand out prominently against its face, adding to its intense, surreal appearance. The angle highlights the structure of its limbs and face, lending an unsettling depth that amplifies the alien-like impression of this unusual jumping spider. A close-up macrophotograph of a male Lyssomanes viridis, known as the magnolia jumping spider, perched on the underside of a green leaf. The spider has translucent yellow-green legs with prominent black spines and joints. Its most striking feature is its vibrant red face, which bears an exaggerated, almost mask-like structure with iridescent white markings that curve and branch in ornate patterns. Its large, reflective front eyes give it a dramatic, alien expression. The fine details of its body hairs and leg textures are crisply visible, creating a visually intense, almost surreal appearance.

🕷️ A jumping #spider for #MacroMonday. Something from the Lyssomanes line, spotted in #costarica. Have a great day, even if it's a Monday. #macro #photography
Close up of a jumping spider on a green leaf. It has red at the top of the head, with a bit of white behind it. The rest is green, except the lower legs, which are darker, even black in parts.

Magnolia green jumping spider (Lyssomanes viridis), spiny backed orb weaver (Gasteracantha cancriformis), and marbled orb weaver (Araneus marmoreus). Found these in western NC, was the most western G. cancriformis I’ve seen, much more used to seeing them in the eastern half.

*gently pats head* you can do so much peering with these orbs you don't even know
(none other than the leggy green jello monster, Lyssomanes viridis 💚)
Translucent apple-green jumping spider with an orange "hat" out of which are peering the biggest green orb eyes you've ever seen on a spider. He's peering up to left of frame. He also has a little black pencil mustache, and the characteristic giant chelicerae of males of the species.
