The male green jumping spider has a dark red head and a bright green body. The scientific name for this spider is Mopsus Mormon.
The Black Widow spider got its name because the female eats her mate following mating. Though this does not always happen, people believed it did and therefore gave the spider its title. The female usually kills the male after mating.
There is not a specific name for the male version of a black widow that is not the arachnid. A male serial killer who kills his spouse for money or any other reason is simply referred to as a spousal killer.
