V for Victory - Pt. 2 - _TNY_0553
I recently posted a shot of a male v-fronted jumper (Aelurillus v-insignitus) from the Käringboda nature reserve just outside Nynäshamn, Sweden, taken using the macro lens in my new phone and was excited about the quality possible from a phone.
Well, you didn't think I just shot it with the phone, did you? Here is the same guy shot using proper gear.
This is a pretty small species (the male is between 4 and 5 mm in body length) and has no English common name, but is known as "vinkelhoppspindel" in Sweden, meaning "angle jumping spider" or maybe "chevron jumping spider" because of the light markings on the top of the male's head. These guys also have wonderfully green eyes which always look cool.
