Falcon jumping spider — size comparison — facts and sources

Evarcha falcata is a Palearctic jumping spider inhabiting low vegetation, forest clearings, heathland and shrub twigs.

It actively seeks small insects on plants. Good eyesight locates prey before a short leap.

Similar jumping spiders may occupy the same vegetation. Identification requires marking patterns and structural details rather than merely large front eyes.
