Two-striped Jumping Spider - Telamonia Dimidiata - Animal India
The Two-striped Jumper, or Telamonia dimidiata, is a jumping spider primarily found in various Asian tropical rainforests, particularly in the foliage of wooded, wet, and humid environments in countries such as Singapore, Indonesia, Pakistan, Iran, India, and Bhutan. It can also be found in parts of Europe and other regions worldwide, including the United States. The male spider is very dark with white markings and red hairs around the eyes. T. dimidiata produces no toxin significant to humans. Two-striped Jumping Spiders are opportunistic hunters, primarily preying on small insects like flies, moths, grasshoppers, beetles, and other spiders. They may also feed on available food sources such as fruits or nectar. On August 10, 2024, a male Two-striped Jumper spider (Telamonia dimidiata) was observed waiting on the edge of a guava leaf for its prey in Tehatta, West Bengal, India.
