In my place, this animal is called a jumping spider, besides being like spiders in general, this spider has its own uniqueness, namely it can jump very far, and I know this when I want to catch it, when my hand is very close to this spider, suddenly I am surprised by the spider that suddenly disappeared, but it turns out that this spider was already far in front of me which means it had jumped far before, so it is not surprising that this spider is often called a jumping spider.

In addition to its uniqueness, this spider also has a very stunning color, which is black with some additional spots, besides the color of this spider also looks shiny which makes it clearly visible to both of our eyes. And I often see this spider in the trees and very rarely see this spider playing on the ground.

Even when I wanted to take a picture of this spider I had to repeat my mistakes and failures several times, because this spider kept its distance from me, but luckily this spider was perched on one of the dry leaves and I managed to take a good picture of it.
