Habronattus

Habronattus is a genus in the family Salticidae (jumping spiders). Most species are native to North America. They are commonly referred to as paradise spiders due to their colorful courtship ornaments and complex dances, similar to birds-of-paradise.^[1][2] Males display intricate coloration, while females are cryptic.^[3]
