I absolutely love huntsmen spiders, are there any that are particularly colorful that you know of?

Me too! Mostly they're cryptically colored grey, tan, brown, black, or green.

The green huntsman comes to mind first since it's uhhhhhh bright neon green

Nice :) Photo by mazzeip

Also this yellow guy which I can't post because the photos are not creative comments.

Plus these two:

Sure! It's a golden huntsman spider, likely Olios argelasius :)

@whatmyrottingboneswillsing submitted: i know its not a very good picture, but it was found in central arizona. my house backs up against a short stretch of rocky, scrub filled desert and foothills if that helps

What a beautiful little pal! Looks like they are wearing little black shoes. Cute. This sweet friend is a giant crab spider, which is a misnomer, because it’s not a crab spider at all, but rather a huntsman! 10/10 would blow kisses to this fella
