Hi Colin,

You see those pale arrows pointing towards the head, on the black left-right markings on the abdomen? Well, I believe that makes this another common jumper - Salticus cingulatus

Take care,

Jason

Cheers Jason, couldn't find a matching image of S. cingulatus.

The nearest and just about a match, was a Juvenile female S. scenicus. I'll keep looking though, the markings are so variable.
