Figure 37. Selected composite images showing successive positions of a jumping male Jotus remus (1000 FPS video). The position of the pedicel was plotted with small circles a 1 msec intervals, superimposed on a grid of 1 mm squares (1 mm/msec corresponds to 100 cm/s). The take-off velocity (at position 7 at right side of grid) shown here was ~79 cm/s in a direction of 18.4° above horizontal (horizontal velocity ~75 cm/s, vertical velocity ~25 cm/s). The red line represents a ballistic flight trajectory from the take-off position, and the actual flight path (small circles) approximates this. Like other jumping spiders, Jotus use their dragline during these targeted jumps. Note the reversal of pitch (backward to forward) at the end of this jump.
