    A remarkable spider, never seen anything like it! Would appreciate if you try to find the name of the species, it is very much worth it for this unusual one. Posted 10 years ago

    Lovely spider - I was wondering from the photo if it is a jumping spider (salticidae) - and whether it might be epocilla species ? Epocilla calcarata see here

    Or here
