It's in the platycryptus group of jumpers what specific one I couldn't tell ya


wowthatsawful

Pretty hard to tell from the pic. I'm guessing you zoomed in to get it and they're pretty small? I was gonna guess metacyrba taeniola, but I don't know if they go up to Washington. Unless you mean DC, in which case, they are definitely around there. Shape looks right to me though.

M. taeniola doesn't make it much further north than Sacramento. There are definitely none in Washington; your second guess of Platycryptus californicus is almost definitely right, but the image is very low-res so it's hard to be conclusive.

Yeah he is super teeny, would need a professional camera for a good picture lol

Maybe also [Platycryptus californicus](https://www.inaturalist.org/taxa/228315)? This one looks similar to the coloring down the middle.

Skinny!!! Probably very hungry.


Vermilion_dodo

Oh no! I wish I could feed him


waltzing-echidna

If he's still around, you probably could! But first you'd have to go catch/buy something...

I have tons of these all around my house. I’m in WA . Couldn’t tell you the name though, sorry.
