[8.1]  Unidentified male salticid.  Note the large PME.  The pedipalps of this spider are remarkably similar to those of the salticoid (perhaps Euophrys) shown in [8.4] and [8.5], in that they bear prominent white setae that can be alternately concealed or displayed.  Singapore.

[8.2]   Another male salticid of the species shown in [8.1].  Singapore.

[8.3]  Detailed view of male salticid species shown in [8.1] and [8.2].  Venus Drive, Singapore.

[8.4]  Unidentified male salticid, perhaps Euophrys.  Cameron Highlands, Singapore.  This photograph shows how the prominent white setae on the pedipalps can be concealed from the front.  Unlike the spider shown in [8.1], [8.2], and [8.3], this is a salticoid species with small PME.

[8.5]  Same species shown in [8.4].  Venus Drive, Singapore.  In this view you can see the diminuitive PME of this species.  This male lowered his pedipalps to display their prominent wite setae, in bold contrast with his shinyblack chelicerae.

[8.6]  Unidentified salticid.  Singapore.

[8.7]   Another view of the unidentified species shown in [8.6].

[8.8]   Unidientifed salticid.  Bukit Timah Reserve Botanic Gardens, Singapore.

[8.9]  Another view of the salticid shown in [8.8].

[8.10]  Side view of the salticid shown in [8.8] and [8.9].  Note the elevated position of the opisthosoma.

[8.11]  Unidientified salticid.  Bukit Timah Reserve Botanic Gardens, Singapore.  This spider has relatively large, elevated PME.

[8.12]  Unidentified salticid.  Singapore.

[8.13]  Male Phaeacius malayensis.  Singapore.  The PME are raised and relatively large.

[8.14]  Another view of the male Phaeacius malayensis shown in [8.13].

[8.15]  A different male Phaeacius malayensis, with a lighter coloration.  Singapore.

[8.16]  Female Phaeacius malayensis.  Singapore.
[8.17]  Female Phaeacius malayensis.  Singapore.  The camouflage is very good indeed.

[8.18]  Unidentified male salticid.  Bellevue hotel Penang Hill, Singapore.  Note the large PME.  This may be a species of Gelotia.

[8.19]  Face view of the salticid shown in [8.18].
