| |  Is This A Sitticus 'Jumping' Spider?
Which spider is this? I believe its a Jumping 'one, but I'm not sure of it's exact ID - Is it a Sitticus species? 
Sorry for the low quality - a 5mp pic cropped to 640x480 on-camera, but hopefully it's good enough!
Thanks! |

Looks like Salticus scenicus.

Hi Jason, they're both Salticus scenicus, although they appear aesthetically different, the first specimen is a particularly poor one and looks somewhat dehydrated, hence the small abdomen.
