I live in Florida and there is a red spider with a green diamond on its back. I want to know what type it is?

The spider is about as big as my pinky fingernail, red and the green diamond looks fuzzy.I live in Florida and there is a red spider with a green diamond on its back. I want to know what type it is?IDing a spider by color,is almost impossible.

out of 50,000 + species, only 600 of them can be ID'd visually.

From a 'most common' perspective, small fuzzy spiders usually

belong to the salticidae family, or common jumping spiders.

their colors can vary widely across the 6000 known species,

and some can be brilliantly colored.

(on a guess, I would think this is one of the Eris genus of

the salticidae family)
