p.1 #1 · Viciria sp. spiderlings update

Feb 2 - the spiderlings have molted (first instars) but surprisingly, mom was still around. However, after carefully looking at the low mag shot of the spiderlings, I realized there were still a few that hadn't molted yet.

A more complete set of images of all stages can be found here: [url]http://orionmystery.blogspot.com/2012/02/jumping-spider-life-cycle.html[/url]

Bottom right is the molted one.
