Green and Orange Jumping Spider
These are photos of a large multi-colored jumping spider my son found in Ohio. It is mostly brown but has distinctive orange blotches on its abdomen as well as a iridescent green stripe down its back.
It dropped from high in a maple tree, carrying with it a dead bug. I cannot be certain, but I think the spider's catch is an assassin bug.

I just caught one of these because it looked really interesting. I found it in Ohio as well and I was trying to figure out which type of spider it was, and now I know. :D
