of course, when I dont have my macro lens handy, I see the tiniest, shiniest little guy.
'Goldenbum' (Simaethula sp.).
The very cute Simaethula violacea ❤ I can’t find much information about these spiders, but they’re small, black, and remind me of a Star Wars droid.

@nulook4summa submitted: hello do you know who my tiny jumping friend is? on Galibal Country, Kyogle, Australia
Goodness they are TINY and ROUND. I'm thinking maybe the Simaethula genus, or poooossibly Simaetha, but at the very least, the Simaethina subtribe!
The first jumper I found yesterday was this Simaethula sp. I’m mildly obsessed with it. Look at that face!!! #spider #jumpingspider #simaethula #australia

simaethula sp
#473 - Simaethula Jumping Spider
Small (Simaethula means 'small Simaetha') but very robust, somewhat flattened jumping spiders, with small rear eyes, and frequently metallic.
Rob Whyte, who corrected my ID, has further info from a Polish expert on Saltacid spiders
Marek Zabka says Simaethula and Simaetha should probably never have been split, and the characters for separating Simaethula are rather weak, including the posterior lateral eyes being further back on the head than those of Simaetha. To really know one must revise all known and unknown Simaethula and the problem is they are rather small, with simple genitalia which doesn't vary much between notional species, so it has to wait till a DNA lab and operator wants to spend about a year.
