An invasive. Unique in the tubercles all over.
As to ID, hard work, a new language of odd, long words, dedecation, and for me, sixty years time in .
Just ask here, a shortcut.

Looks to be a male Phidippus sp. of jumping spider. They make good pets. Readily eating flies and the like.
Our condo full of them due to houseplants.
Nicely done.

I went to Michaels with a coupon and chose frames and mats in stock. Nothing custom. It’s expensive! Where is the best place to have this done? I’m not framing the Mona Lisa just some nice photos. Comments please 😇
I find by going to yard sales, you can buy pennys on the dollar frames, mats, etc.
I get a couple dozen together, clean and re frame with my work printed to fit at a Sam's store. Use new wire, paper seal back, and include wall hooks. Sell, give away or keep.
Not hi art, but looks fine.
Also check a local frame shop. They may give away free scrap.

I've found several adult Four Spotted Sap Beetles lately which are quite small and I've attached one from a recent post for comparison.
I found this small beetle during one of my walks through the yard yesterday. I am not sure that it is a younger version of the one posted below although certain aspects of it suggest to me that it may be.
Thanks in advance to all who view and comment and thanks to anyone that can identify this little beetle.

I kept looking. I now believe the first to be in the family Scolytidae. A large family of tiny wood boring beetles.

For the first, I believe it to be a Bostricidae.Need antenna visible the pronotum, striations with punctures and hairs on the elytra point that way.
The second is Nitiduldae. Reasonably sure Glischrochilus fasciàtus.
Bostrichids are a small group with distinctive pronotum and elytra shapes.
Tease out antenna and get a shot straight down on #one, please.

This is a beautiful picture, and it showcases your skills in this hobby. It may be your finest work, though I don't know how to judge that.
And thanks to Bill too (copious thanks!) for providing these prepared specimens! I have also benefited from his generosity.
