Hyllus Diardi Spider Jumper

The heavy jumping spider, or Hyllus diardi as it is scientifically called, is a genus of the spider family Salticidae. Most species of this spider are found in Madagascar and Africa. That said, they have also been spotted in Australia and North of India. Although they have been spotted a couple of times in Greece and Iran, experts believe that they are introduced in this region. Given their hairy body and large size, it’s super easy to identify the giant jumping spider. To start with, the females are a lot bigger than their male counterparts as they measure between 0.39 to 0.59 inches. While they aren’t as colorful as other jumping spider species, they feature distinct grayish to white shades. #LensaIndonesia #MacroIndonesia #PindleGem
