Spider identification request
Hi. Could you tell me what types of spiders these are? The first two pictures are of the same spider, and the third picture (the one on the plant) is a different spider. I think the former is a jumping spider of some sort (it’s about 1/4 inch in size) and that the latter is a Black and Yellow Argiope, but I’m not sure. I live in the Poconos, about 45 miles east of Scranton, Pennsylvania. Thanks!

Great job on the identifications Ben. Would you be interested in helping us answer our questions? We are currently swamped. I love the fluorescent jaws on your Jumping Spider and the Argiope is always an impressive specimen.
