Hyllus diardi is a large tropical jumping spider known for its impressive size, fuzzy appearance, and curious personality. As one of the larger commonly kept jumping spiders, they make an excellent choice for keepers looking for something a little different from Phidippus species.

Provide a tall, well-ventilated enclosure with plenty of climbing surfaces and anchor points near the top for webbing. Keepers should provide moderate-to-high humidity while maintaining good airflow. Feed appropriately sized live insects such as flies, roaches, crickets, and other suitable feeders.
