Perception of biological motion by jumping spiders. [PDF]
PLoS Biology, 2021 The body of most creatures is composed of interconnected joints. During motion, the spatial location of these joints changes, but they must maintain their distances to one another, effectively moving semirigidly.

A Comparative Analysis of the Camera-like Eyes of Jumping Spiders and Humans [PDF]
Vision, 2021 Among invertebrates, jumping spiders are one of the few groups whose representatives have camera-like eyes, and the only group whose representatives have fovea.

Pantropical Jumping Spiders in Florida
EDIS, 2003 Jumping spiders, or salticids, are so named because they have a highly coordinated jumping ability with which they capture prey and traverse from plant to plant. Their sense of sight is extraordinary for invertebrates; they can see in color (DeVoe 1975),

The deep phylogeny of jumping spiders (Araneae, Salticidae) [PDF]
ZooKeys, 2014 In order to resolve better the deep relationships among salticid spiders, we compiled and analyzed a molecular dataset of 169 salticid taxa (and 7 outgroups) and 8 gene regions.

Conspicuous stripes on prey capture attention and reduce attacks by foraging jumping spiders [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2023 Many animals avoid predation using aposematic displays that pair toxic/dangerous defences with conspicuous achromatic warning patterns, such as high-contrast stripes.

Distance assessment of detours by jumping spiders [PDF]
Current Zoology, 2019 AbstractTo take an indirect route (detour) in order to reach a specific target requires complex cognitive processes. Yet more demanding, from the cognitive point of view, is when the goal is only visible at the beginning of the detour. In spiders from the family Salticidae, vision is a key sensory modality mediating navigation and prey search.

Neurobiology: Jumping Spiders Getting On Board [PDF]
Current Biology, 2014 A new technique has overcome decades of failure to allow, for the first time, electrophysiological access to the brains of jumping spiders, a group of animals renowned for generating highly complex, seemingly vertebrate-like behavior from their tiny arthropod brains.

The Brushed Jumping Spiders (Araneae, Salticidae, Jotus L. Koch, 1881) from Eastern Australia [PDF]
Evolutionary Systematics, 2019 The Australian fauna of Jumping spiders (family Salticidae) is highly diverse and includes iconic lineages such as the peacock spiders (genus Maratus Karsch, 1878) that are well-known for their vibrant colours and fascinating behaviours.
