About 1cm. Spotted in Albany, on a rocky beach, but it could have traveled on my caravan from Greece to Albany.

When I moved my phone closer he (she?) tried to jump against it.

    It’s certainly a jumping spider, there is no doubt about that.

    My best guess would be Thyene imperialis, but jumping spiders are notoriously hard to ID, so it’s just a suggestion.

    Yup, they love jumping at camera lenses for some reason. You can also play with them with a laser pointer or with a mouse cursour if they wander onto your screen.
