Habronattus dossenus/Jumping Spider Mating Dance with Sound
Loading...
Uploaded by Sukhoi30MKI on Nov 2, 2008
The first sound recording of a jumping spiders' mating dance. It has been thought that they communicate primarily visually but this video proves that sound plays an even greater role. At least during mating and fights. The spider was placed on a highly sensitive membrane to record the sound generated by the vibrations during the mating dance.

A fascinating mix of what sounds like my first car on a cold morning, an old man snoring and castanets... The way he synchronizes the sound with the movement of his front legs... woo! ;-)

Spider needs to work on his footsies game otherwise he's gonna get tier-whored out of the match.

I guess he gets louder and faster because being subtle wasn't working too well for him....i bet that's exhausting
