Asemonea tenuipes (male)
Photographed at Karnala. A little more than 1 cm long.
Canon EOS 500D, Canon 100mm Macro USM lens
Aperture-Priority AE
Tv 1/60
Av 9.0
EC 0
ISO 1600
Hand held
Cropped and did a little bit of NR in LightRoom 3. (no significant detail loss due to the NR)
Also tried a vertical crop, but it looked a little tight for my taste.
Thanks, C&C awaited.
Lovely composition. The different shades of green look nice. The clean background adds to the composition. Good details. Thanks for sharing.
Not sure about id. It is exciting to view images of such small creatures. Slightly more space between the leaf edge and the right frame would have been better. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers,

Hi.. Abhisehek nice shot. I like the plane BG. and nice eye contact.
I think, not sure..this is Tutelina elegans jumping spider.

Bhavya,
It's not Tutelina elegans. Thanks all the same for your help. I found a few pages on the net showing this spider... but none of them have identified it beyond "jumping spider". Will update this thread with the ID if I find it.
Got the ID- Asemonea tenuipes.
The main ID characteristic of the genus Asemonea is the pair of elongated spinnerets (of the male) that give it a "tailed" appearance. Also, the eye arrangement is peculiar to the genus, the most notable feature being that the front of the head is occupied by only the pair of very large anterior median eyes.
Will also share an image of a female of this species shortly.
