User's notes
Expect the unexpected. This small Jumping spider with its prey was sighted towards the underside of a handrail in ANBG's Rainforest Gully. The images have been reorientated 90 degrees anti-clockwise to make them easier to view. The first and last images show an orange coloured parasite on the spider's body. Thanks to Marcus Leach for the initial sighting.
