What is the identity of this spider from India?
Anyone identify this little guy?


That is a Siler semiglaucus, which is a type of jumping spider. It has the nickname of "metallic jumper", and can be found all throughout India, Indonesia, Philippines, and Thailand.








  He has 8 legs, but the two on the front is raised above his head, just like a crab does.




Here is a wonderful collection of more images, which also includes locations of discovery.
