Attus venator Lucas, 1836 Salticus myrmecoides Rossi, 1846 Leptorchestes venator Leptorchestes ludibundus Simon, 1875 Synageles ludibundus Synageles confusus Kulczynski, 1884 Synageles venator is a species of ant-like jumping spider.

It occurs in the Palearctic region and Canada, and is also found in North Africa.

They are similar to the jumping spider Leptorchestes berolinensis, but feature a white line on the back of their heads.

Hand-raised tits that had never come in contact with ants ate spiders of this species readily.

However, after their first encounters with real ants, and the nauseating effect of their formic acid, they refrained from eating S.
