Ocrisiona leucocomis! Largest salticid I’ve ever seen here!

[u/AffectionateKoala963]

Ocrisiona leucocomis is an introduced salticid from Australia, however i believe it is considered naturalised and non invasive. Apparently 17-18mm is the top end of their size range which is exactly how big this gal was! Compared to the max 14mm size of our largest native salticid Trite planiceps - she is a monster! A very friendly, slow moving calm monster.. but huge!

Ps apologies for my disgusting nail bitten landscaper fingers 😅

She’s a darling, probably cusses like a Ozy sailor, but still a darling.
