Monomad: Eyelash Jumping Spider

in voilk •  2 months ago

    I found many interesting things, such as walking in the mangrove forest recently. It was not only inhabited by marine animals, egrets, and seagulls, but it turns out that jumping spiders can also be found in the mangroves.

    This one is Hyllus diardi, which is commonly called the eyelash jumping spider or heavy jumping spider.

    What a cute female jumper! I noticed she was crawling on a roll of fishing net lying on the ground—that was not where she should be. If the fishing net was taken by fishermen and thrown into the river, what would happen to her? She certainly couldn't swim and ended up being eaten by fish; I hope she realized it and immediately moved to the jeruju plants or mangrove trees that grew along the riverbank.
