Anasaitis canosus, previously of the genus Corythalia, is a small jumping spider that can typically be found atop leaf-litter or man-made structures such as fences and exterior walls.

This species is more commonly known as the twin-flagged jumping spider due to the two pennant shaped markings on the dorsal side of the cephalothorax.

[citation needed] Typical of the genus Anasaitis, this species has iridescent setae ("scales") which may appear white, green or pink which create the "flags" as well as patches on the male pedipalps used in courtship and intraspecific signaling.

It was described based on an illustration by John Abbot that appeared in his unpublished book, Drawings of the Insects of Georgia, in America (1792).

Males typically have a smaller abdomen, darker anterior appendages and the embolus is spade shaped and bent basally.
