I wish I had a guy like this as an uncle , very educated and gentlemen likewise. I love jumpers and he would really fun to hang with ...would love to see your collection. Thanks for the video
This video is awesome. Jumping spiders are far and away my favorite subjects for macro photography. I tried this technique today, and within an hour or so I caught and photographed as many as I had already photographed prior to to watching this video. Seriously, I can't say thank you enough.
I'm so lucky in Australia. We have peacock jumping spiders which are my favourite not just because they're so colourful and entertaining but also because new species are being discovered.
Ink So you see extremely colorful peacock jumping spiders on a regular basis where you live? We primarily have 'bold jumping spiders' here. They are all black. But they typically do a pretty good job of staying out of sight most of the time. I can work outside, surrounded by flowers and shrubs and houses, and a small patch of trees, and not see one except maybe 1 out of 3 days.
Well, some people do have jumpers as pets, but mostly of the genus Phidippus. This man here, is one of the greatest (if not the most) researchers of the family in the world.
Thanks for posting this! Some people complain that there are too many jumping spiders where they live; I'm cursed with an under-abundance of jumping spiders. Maybe after watching this I'll find more of those adorable creatures. :)
been collecting spiders for 35 years as an ameture scientist and now sharing my pride and joy with my nephew. I studied geology at SOU. Great video btw and love the tips. Someday I will post my methods for capturing black widows.
Excellent video. Clear and concise explanation from an expert who knows how to teach, and video taken by a professional or very good amateur. I would only add two things- a warning about ticks and Lyme disease (among other diseases) which is part of the reason you wear long pants and tuck your cuffs into your boots, and maybe an explanation of the data you're writing. The location, lat/lon and date are self explanatory. The numbering system seems to be the 2 digit year followed by the incremented location number. At the bottom it seems to be the researchers' initials- maybe research assistants there helping you? The 650 m el. stumped me for a minute until I realized it was meters of elevation. Looks like you were walking down the hill in Malaysia. (put the coordinates into google maps and take a look at where he was, people- pretty cool). Then there's a percentage in parentheses. Is that the relative humidity? You have it on the typed slip but not on your notes. Thanks for the vid.
I absolutely love this yesterday I was moving a jumping spider and it jumped to my hand and that’s when I knew that my own first pet would be a jumping spider
Me collecting: OH MY GOSH THERE'S A JUMPING SPIDER Jumping spider: You'll never catch me alive, bub!! I just started studying Salticidae here in Brazil, before that I was studying spiders in general, my colleagues at the lab tend to collect directly into alcohol. I was heartbroken the first time I went collecting with them, so I started to look for alternatives for this and this video helped me realize that one of my initial ideas is very much effective. I just need different vials!
@@aubrey756 not yet, but I'm working on the samples we had on the lab already, so fortunately I don't need to euthanize any more of them. After my undergraduate thesis is complete, I'll start looking into their behavior bit by bit and then I won't be having to euthanize anymore. And I don't know if there's ever going to be any alternatives for this when the research is taxonomic (because of the need to remove genitalia and or collect samples for genetics)...
I am just getting into some self study and have had a very hard time being able to kill them. I wish I had some samples to look at. Thank you for responding!
This video were the principal focus for the methods of my cientific initiation in a survey of jumping spiders here in Brazil. It'll be organized as Maddison 2015 proposes too. I just have to thank you, professor Wayne Maddison.
An exceptionally helpful video. I'm about to start collecting again (in the UK) after a long lay-off - so thanks for reminding me of the basics - much appreciated.
Great tips, Wayne, and perfect timing for our AZ collecting excursion, which starts today. Motivated Daniel Zurek and I to go grab carpentry belts yesterday with nice leather pockets like yours.
I've scaled your system up a little for all types of bugs. Instead of the tiny glass vials I use old prescription bottles. Same idea, slightly bigger volume. You do need to take it back out to properly examine it though.
"Mom, *I'm not properly equipped* for jumping spider hunting. I'll need a full jumping spider gear and tools. Do you have a fanny pack too and your sun weather hat? I'm walking around nude looking for jumping spiders after watching this tutorial. Oh mom, do you still have that beating stick you used on me yesterday for getting an F on my fractions math test? I guess jumping spiders also have math issues."
*his neighbors* “WTH, IS HE BEATING BUSHES WITH STICKS?” *him* “oh nah, I’m just looking for jumping spiders to add to my collection!” *neighbors* “😳-“ THIS IS A JOKE
I like jumping Spider their are cool looking to me it seems like when I go out side sometimes I run into them sometimes or there run into me in away sometime jumping Spider do I do not take them out of the woods I live them in woods.
I just caught one in my house with paper and a glass. He almost died like ten times. I also saw what I think is his mom outside. (She’s huge) I am saving him for when my parents get home and i can educate them on him.(he is a baby nc jumping spider I think)
What about collecting spiders at night? Furthermore, most spiders are night hunters. So, are the same methods acceptable at night, including flashlights?
Hi Wayne, we Love your video. I have a goal of identifying and recording an undiscovered insect or spider. How much time should I spend, in 1 acre of land, before moving to the next acre? Also, how much distance should my next acre be, from the last?
Those poor bushes, he really beats the shit out of em' doesn't he? This guy stopped eating all animals and became a vegetarian but it was less about living a healthy lifestyle and more about just hating plants and wanting to hurt them and exterminate them
I will have you know that this is how ALL entomologists gather specimens, to get a good sample you need to shake the foliage thoroughly enough that the arthropods become dislodged.
You do know that trees do not have nerve endings, right? And besides, it's not like he is ripping them out of the ground and eating them, like savage vegetarians do. *insert heavy sarcasm *
i seen a little jumper with neon metallic green colored triangles on its fangs and i put him a good distance away from my house, then a couple days later he was on a handle of my bike waiting. they are smart.
Me watching this: oh these are great ideas for finding my next seasonal pet spider! The guy: most people just catch them directly into alcohol Me: D: oh
So I have a couple of questions. Does the beating hurt the spiders? Because my son and I are trying to collect jumpers to keep as pets. It hurts my heart that you kill the jumpers. I can’t bare to think how many you’ve killed in the last 43 years. But besides that, does your betting method hurt them? Also, do your vials kill then? There are no air holes. Thanks.
You seriously are the type of guy who'd get lost looking for spiders huh. I'm going looking for jumping spiders I think I'm going to need my GPS and my safety whistle.
Carl Mathiason I have caught jumping spiders at winter in really cold weather, they usually make nests under a dry dead trees bark be careful because you have to pull apart the nest and it easy to injure the spider in the nest if your not careful
This is the Bob Ross of spider collecting
He's literally the Bob Ross of spider collecting and I love it.
MaxiTeyla so true!!
😂 i can't. This is correct
More like Ned Flanders...
Thank God! Two pieces of good news in one day! Not only is it Brexit 🇬🇧, but I’ve just discovered a biologist even more eccentric than me! Bless him!
This is the nerdiest thing I've ever seen! The outfit, the pouch, the tools, the vegetation striking techniques! Perfection.
I haven't graduated to a whistle or gps, but, but the rest is worth it for me.
And so awesome !!
This guy is hardcore. He don't mess about.
This animal crossing guide was a lot better than I expected
This man is a precious angel. Adorable. Also, very informative. I'll have to go spider hunting when it warms up.
this is a duplicate comment.
"Oh my gosh there's a spider. A jumping spider!"
Joseph Brown hahaha, I was stoked about that too. This guy is the shit.
Live successful unintentional demo 😂😂😂😂
I wish I had a guy like this as an uncle , very educated and gentlemen likewise. I love jumpers and he would really fun to hang with ...would love to see your collection. Thanks for the video
well, you can always read his papers

Where I live we have jumping chihuahua spider everywhere -_- ugly things 😂
Lucky! Maybe you will discover a new species on your own!

I envy the fact youse guys have Peacocks but not having to check your shoes for the nasty real spiders hahaha
Like pokemon but real
That's where they got the idea.
Bruh
Like joltik
@@randallapker6872 This. The creator enjoyed searching for and catching bugs growing up. That was the actual inspiration.
Bruh 4 reals
I had no idea this was a hobby that people do.
Well, some people do have jumpers as pets, but mostly of the genus Phidippus.

Havent u played animal crossing
Thank you so much! So nice to see someone who knows what they`re talking about helping us beginners :)
Thanks for posting this! Some people complain that there are too many jumping spiders where they live; I'm cursed with an under-abundance of jumping spiders.
Maybe after watching this I'll find more of those adorable creatures. :)
Yeah
Same here
Yeah I live in Arizona so I've never seen a jumping spider in my life
same
@@Dylan-bl8dc There are at least 100 species of jumpers in Arizona.

You should
Me watching this so I can go outside later and catch some jumping spiders to keep as pets👁👄👁
Did you find any?
This is why I'm here lol
Funnily enough, I found a white jawed male jumper in my car earlier this evening. Lol.

This helped me collect my first specimen, an absolutely beautiful male Phiddipus regius! So, thank you for this video!!
This guy is awesome, spends his time collecting bugs. And he's happy, best part
I agree. And the variety is astounding, noticing bits of personality among so many species, sometimes big bits. It never gets old.
You remind me of my biology II professor,I miss him. Love this video though, you’re very well educated with what you do!
Amazing and very detailed. You usually don't receive such an intense lesson. Very interesting.
I absolutely love this yesterday I was moving a jumping spider and it jumped to my hand and that’s when I knew that my own first pet would be a jumping spider

Are there many interesting jumpers in England or is the zebra jumper the 'best' one?
i'd say that the zebra jumper is the most interresting one
@@julians.2597what?? Why it's so tiny
Dude thx so much ive found about 10 spiders today very helpful
Very detailed and fun video. Makes me want to pick up the trade myself!
"This is my beating stick".
The Mr. Rogers of spider hunters. LMAO
bob ross of spider hunters
I initially thought he was going to blow his whistle and then chase the spider with the whacking stick....
We were jumping spider hunting and had to look for a video for tips. This is cool, thank you for loving spiders. Great video
You sir are one of a kind . Thank you for you being you !! Great video and info :)
This was both informative and soothing. I've recently begun collecting specimens to document what I've found and observed. This was helpful!
i'm so sad it's almost winter ! i'm so impatient for the good days to go collecting ! and thanks a lot for your video, it was very interesting !
well its summer now ive just seen 2 one baby and an adult that had white and black stripes i need to catch one of these
Very nice and detailed video of a fellow arthropod enthusiast.
Thank you for sharing I enjoy close up and Macro photography. Now I can catch photograph and release.
Great tips, Wayne, and perfect timing for our AZ collecting excursion, which starts today. Motivated Daniel Zurek and I to go grab carpentry belts yesterday with nice leather pockets like yours.
Thanks for this, had a lot of very useful info.. Now off to make a beating sheet
untill today I was unaware that even collecting spider s have some standards,respect to this man
remarcable video, very clear and well explained.
This is a professional at work. Over 40 years of experience. We don’t deserve this level of expertise for free
Thank you for the wisdom. You have a lot of experience.
Excellent lesson. Thank you very much.
Hey Wayne I just got a female Phidippus johnsoni, do you know where they usually hang out because I’m trying to breed the female.
When he said "happy lil bushes" i immediately thank of bob ross 0w0
Great video ! I wish you would've told us how to make a formidable beating sheet as yours though
only one species endemic to the UK. They are adorable but it makes me sad there aren't more.
Wow a whole arsenal for a harmless cute critter 😂 this guy means business 😂👍🏻
for 43 years, how crazy
Excellent video Wayne; thanks for sharing
A whistle? how do you get lost in your backyard?
Wonderful video! I’m excited for spring to come around, I know there are dozens hiding in my 4 o’clocks each year :)
Wayne Maddison, Master Spidernapper™
This video was absolutely hilarious 😂 now I know how to properly beat on vegetation. Thank you, for what you do
I've scaled your system up a little for all types of bugs. Instead of the tiny glass vials I use old prescription bottles. Same idea, slightly bigger volume. You do need to take it back out to properly examine it though.
Thank you for posting this, it's a great help!
He’s got a tool belt for jumping spiders, thats serious.
Excellent video!!! Great information.
Well fellas I’m off, I’ll catch y’all on the flippity flop, it’s spider hunting time
Did you find any spiders?
"Mom, *I'm not properly equipped* for jumping spider hunting. I'll need a full jumping spider gear and tools. Do you have a fanny pack too and your sun weather hat? I'm walking around nude looking for jumping spiders after watching this tutorial. Oh mom, do you still have that beating stick you used on me yesterday for getting an F on my fractions math test?

You have assisted me in finding a jumping spider alot easier, than just using the ol eyes
This is an amazing video!!! Great work and thanks for sharing!
This looks fascinating and fun!
I hate when I get lost in my backyard. Thank goodness for whistles!
Thank you! I am trying to find a jumper to keep as a pet, and was having trouble. Going to try these methods!
Hey I was wondering where I can buy a beating sheet online I bet collecting jumping spiders would be a whole lot easier if I got one.
Try BioQuip.
*his neighbors* “WTH, IS HE BEATING BUSHES WITH STICKS?” *him* “oh nah, I’m just looking for jumping spiders to add to my collection!” *neighbors* “😳-“
THIS IS A JOKE
Love his voice.
It looks like part of a croquet mallet
I like jumping Spider their are cool looking to me it seems like when I go out side sometimes I run into them sometimes or there run into me in away sometime jumping Spider do I do not take them out of the woods I live them in woods.
I would like to see the equipments in the descriptions below
Wholesome content
What size glass vials are those? Also where can I find some?
Love how he’s holding it like shield 5:50
I love him!
I just caught one in my house with paper and a glass. He almost died like ten times. I also saw what I think is his mom outside. (She’s huge) I am saving him for when my parents get home and i can educate them on him.(he is a baby nc jumping spider I think)
I feel like I need him as a friend in my life. He means business. 😂
7:30 his wife deffo taking notes about the beating stick 😂
I do not regret the mentality that brought me here
I used to catch these things with a jar when I was a kid.
Did it's have jumping spider in frence ?
In France? Yes
I'm addicted to catching these little spiders. 😍 Sad snow is coming soon and won't be able to all winter 😔
Very thorough explanation. Thank you
What is the spider species at 5:29?
Cylistella. It's tiny, but it's an adult male. They look like small beetles. They live in tropical forests from Mexico into South America.
Why would someone kill a spider after going through all the trouble finding them?
Wait what do you do with the spiders
What about collecting spiders at night? Furthermore, most spiders are night hunters. So, are the same methods acceptable at night, including flashlights?
I don't think jumping spiders hunt at night since they rely heavily on their vision. But are you thinking for other spiders?
I just want to catch my spider roommate Carl a gf
Actually jumping spiders can be cannibals
Jumping spiders will eat eachother
i just found out that one of my trees is full of spiders. ill have to look at my other plants as well
Hi Wayne, we Love your video. I have a goal of identifying and recording an undiscovered insect or spider.
How much time should I spend, in 1 acre of land, before moving to the next acre?
Also, how much distance should my next acre be, from the last?
Where can I buy a sheet like this? I can’t find ANYHING!!!
At first I thought he was collecting T bird eaters or like some huge mysterious new species in the amazon. I had to double check the title. Awesome!
Those poor bushes, he really beats the shit out of em' doesn't he? This guy stopped eating all animals and became a vegetarian but it was less about living a healthy lifestyle and more about just hating plants and wanting to hurt them and exterminate them
What 😂😂😂😂😂
Seriously this video is like Abu ghraib photos for bushes
