Black lobster spider, La Isla Escondida, Colombia This spider is a bit of a mystery to me. It&#039;s small enough to be a jumping spider, but it doesn&#039;t look like one based on the eyes (could be a wrong assumption). Or, it could be a small crab spider but unlike anything I&#039;ve seen before. Most notable feature are the jobster-like claws.
