Jumping spiders (Salticidae)

New images are at the beginning.

According to the "Spiders of North America: An identification manual", there are 63 genera and 315 species of jumping spiders in North America. Globally, there are apparently 5,026 species! The authors say "the task of identification can by daunting." I am relieved to hear this, because I find identifying them even to genus quite difficult most of the time!
