Lovely series Bas! Jumpers are coming out this days, i've seen 2 or 3 but unfortunately can't get a decent shot.

Lovely captures Bas,
Interestingly the second species is the first time I've seen recognisably enlarged palps in a male jumper. Males of the first species (Salticus scenicus) seem to have enlongated chelicera and fangs and not enlarged palps.

Supposed to be 36 species in the UK and guess similar in Holland but I've only seen 4 different ones

Very good , like composition #2 . Lighting looks a bit bright in the first 2 frames ?
