Regal Jumping Spider (Phidippus regius)

This is a female P.regius and it's stunning! It's the firs time I have jumpers this size. Here in Finland we only have small species, like the zebra jumper. I have a male also, but it's not ready to mate yet. We'll see what happens with them. I got these jumpers when they were just slings, not bigger than fruit flies.
