Phidippus audax is a common jumping spider of North America. It is commonly referred to as the daring jumping spider or bold jumping spider. The average size of adults ranges from roughly 13–20 millimetres (0.51–0.79 in) in length. They are typically black with a pattern of spots and striped on their abdomen and legs. Often these spots are orange-tinted in juveniles turning white as the spider matures.
