Re: First time I've noticed this spider
Nice sharp image - a bit of fill-in flash?
Looks like a specie of Spider Ant.

Same probably goes for its prey, nicely snapped.

Re: First time I've noticed this spider
I was wandering through the garden and saw what I thought was a big ant. Once I got it I into focus I realized it wasn't. So just to play he odds I took lots of shots. Originally Posted by madcrow

Re: First time I've noticed this spider
Very nice image, Brian. I count 8 legs, and all are located posterior to the spider's mouth. The most apical set of legs is too far "back" to be the spider's mouth parts. I can see what I think is a portion of its mouth parts on the right side...but it might be a portion of its victim. Based on it having 8 legs, I'd ID it as a type of spider.

Re: First time I've noticed this spider
I wonder if that is one of the Jumping Spiders (Salticidae) Brian. We get similar shaped creatures in the Myrmarachne family and a few others occur in Europe.
