This is a peacock spider part of the Saltacidae spiders or jumping spiders. The males as photographed here have the vibrant colours to impress the females by dancing. This is Maratus speciosus coming in at 4-5mm in size.

This is one of only a few images I have left as I lost all my hard drives and computers to thieves. So I'm going to be slow to post for a while as I get back out to rebuild my photo database and start again...
