Did you know that the Himalayan jumping spider could be the highest living creature in the world, with a permanent residence at elevations around 6,700 m (22,000 ft)?
Black and white version (it's a work in progress) of an illustration for a Cactus di Fuoco Book!
If you can read Italian, you can find the beta version of the book here: https://www.wattpad.com/story/343042410-il-ragno-che-tesseva-racconti
Otherwise, wait a little while, because the book will soon be translated and published (all illustrated by us!) on Amazon.

Hello, I am a spider. Will you be my friend?
π
I photographed this little guy on the weekend in Εtautahi-Christchurch city, NZ. It's an Australian Bronze Hopper, Helpis minitabunda. Introduced accidentally to NZ, it now occurs throughout the North Island and upper to middle South Island.
This species is unusual amongst spiders in that the male is larger than the female.
Some evil changeling ant? No! This is an ant-mimic spider (Myrmarachne sp.), and an ant has just drawn its attention!
