Maevia inclemens is a relatively common and colorful jumping spider of North America. In the males there are two forms a very rare phenomenon in zoology. These use different courting displays and differ in appearance: the tufted morph has a black body and pedipalps (palps) three black tufts across its head and pale legs; and the gray morph has black and white stripes all over its body and legs orange palps and no tufts.
