Attulus fasciger

Attulus fasciger is a species of spider from the family Salticidae native to northern and western Asia.

[3] The sexes are similar in size but the males have a small, but more slender abdomen compared to the female, with larger black palps.

Their success can be attributed to colonizing man-made structures, which provide refuge and camouflage for the mottled brown-and-grey spiders.

This species also capitalizes on the artificial lighting found on many buildings, which attracts prey at night, thereby providing these visually-acute spiders with extended foraging opportunities.
