Mexcala monstrata is a jumping spider that was first described by Wanda Wesołowska and Antonius van Harten in 1994. [1] It is one of over 500 species identified by the Polish arachnologist Wesołowska during her career. [2] They allocated the species to the genus Mexcala, first raised by George and Elizabeth Peckham in 1902. [3]
The species is active mainly at night. In the wild they can be found hiding under rocks or bark, but may reach human-occupied areas during migrations. When the spider feels threatened, it lifts its front torso, swinging its feet to expose a red stain on its mouth and fangs. If the threat continues the spider will turn and look for a place to hide.
