Summary

Description

Today we captured an eventful moment in the life of the colourful little male Maratus hortorum jumping spider. He is all of around 3-4 mm long. He is out on his first date. He meets his lady friend sitting on the same reed only 100 mm away. He must get her attention. He is beautifully dressed for the occasion. He raises his stunning wraparound mediaeval cloak from the Maratus hortorum clan and sways with this from side to side – a performance that would make Elvis proud.

In December 2014 this spider was named Maratus hortorum, previously it was known as Maratus mungaich.
