Jaguar Jumping Spider with Prey, Pt. 6 - _TNY_5735 (In Explore 16/9 2019)

In my opinion, this is one of the cuter species of jumping spider that can be found here - a female v-fronted jumper (Aelurillus v-insignitus).

 

The name v-insignitus stems from the white chevron on the head of the male spider as "v-insignitus" means "v signed". The pattern on the female is pretty badass as well and reminds me of a jaguar.
