This spider is very small, and when I found him, I didn't find any trace of the web. However, I doubt that this little guy is from the jumping spider family.
There might be a chance that this little guy is actually the young Eustala anasterea, one of the orb-weaving spiders. So this guy most likely will make and use a web to catch its prey. This is one of the hard things for me to identify the small creature that I managed to catch, especially with my limited knowledge and mostly will rely on the internet so that I could get more into of this species.
And this is also happening for quite a few times, but once you find the info you will be amaze by some of the fact about this small creature, which always make me excited to photograph more of this tiny little creature.
This guy was resting on the leaves of Leucaena leucocephala. I really think that the tree is native to the tropical region in South East Asia, but apparently I was wrong. This plant is called Lamtoro, or Petai Cina is actually Leucaena leucocephala is a small fast-growing mimosoid tree native to southern Mexico and northern Central America (Belize and Guatemala) and is now naturalized throughout the tropics including parts of Asia.. Very interesting, maybe I should make a post of this plant next time.
