I found this guy inside of a dilapidated old flower pot out in the back yard. I found myself in awe of it’s beautiful iridescent green fangs (which are huge by the way). I would have been even more in awe if I was able to witness the reported 50 times their body length that these things can jump.

These are very common in the area, though I’ve never seen one before. They don’t spin webs (except when laying eggs or to hide in). Also, they have bitchin’ eyes.
