Habronattus viridipes is a species of jumping spider that can be found in the eastern United States (west to Minnesota and Texas) and southern Canada.[1] The species are brownish-black, and have a size of 5.5 millimetres (0.22 in). Its front legs are green. The males attract females by doing a "dance", and showing them their green front legs. If the female likes the dance, they will start to mate.[2]
