salticidae

A beautiful morph of Johnsoni with white cardiac markings and large white anterior stripe on the abdomen. i grabbed 8 of 'em- i would like to cross these guys with other johnsoni morphs.

2nd instar nymphs resemble other purpuratus group species', but have a white/cream medial stripe on the abdomen, making them very easy to identify.

This, alongside the dirty-blonde form are more common, with the latter being the most abundant
