    Awesome, can't say I've ever seen one like this. I guess it is really small? Posted 12 years ago

      Indeed really small, but quite common though I guess. I have seen them on multiple occasions, usually on the bark of a tree. Posted 12 years ago

The Zebra spider

The zebra spider is a common jumping spider of the Northern Hemisphere. Like other jumping spiders it does not build a web. It has a particularly large pair of forward facing eyes that help it to locate and stalk its prey before pouncing on it.
