Crab spiders make up the Thomisidae family of the Araneae order.
They are called crab spiders because they resemble crabs, with two front pairs of legs angled outward and bodies that are flattened and often angular. Also, like crabs, Thomisidae can move sideways or backward.
Crab spiders do not build webs to trap prey, but are hunters and ambushers. Some species sit on or among flowers, bark, fruit or leaves where they grab visiting insects. Individuals of some species, such as Misumena vatia, are able to change color between
white and yellow to match the flower on which they're sitting. Other species, with their flattened bodies, hunt in the crevices of tree trunks or under loose bark. Members of the genus Xysticus hunt in the leaf litter on the ground. In each case, crab spiders
use their powerful front legs to grab and hold onto prey while paralyzing it with a venomous bite.
The spider family Aphantochilidae was incorporated into the Thomisidae in the late 1980s. Aphantochilus species mimic Cephalotes ants, on which they prey.
The spiders of Thomisidae are not known to be harmful to humans.
However, spiders of an unrelated genus, Sicarius, which are sometimes referred to as "crab spiders", are close cousins to the recluse spiders, and are highly venomous.The unrelated species Gasteracantha cancriformis is commonly called the "crab spider."

Hello Taner,
I did not notice the crab spider in the thumbnail. What a lovely bonus. The off-centered daisy is effectively framed with good sharpness and exposure. Have a good weekend my friend....Danilo

Hi Taner


That visual beautiful my friend....
I like your post, your flower
she has a beautiful one visual in the petals, your nucleus is beautiful
and of bonus we won the spider that takes care of her!
Your spider is very intelligent, she is well camouflaged in the
white colors of the petals of the rose.
Congratulations, beautiful macro and great compo!
Good weekend....

Selam Taner Bey,
Uzun süredir çalışmalarınız yoktu. Bence bu örümcek türü çok becerikli.
Papatyanını rengini belki de kamuflaj için kullanıyor. Güzel bir tespit. Teşekkürler

This is indeed the essence of magnificence; so pure and natural, bewildering to the eye and soul - I can almost hear the wedding bells!

Hi Taner,

I have added your picture to the theme; you can do it yourself by clicking on your photo and at the left it says "Add to theme" then pick the "F" and on page 5 you see all the Friday themes.

Lovely bright picture with that strange white transparent spider and I must say your frame/presentation looks attractive.

Merhaba Taner Ağabey
Harika bir makro olmuş
Ben de bir tane yengeç örümceği görüntülemiştim eski makinamla
Aslında size göre daha şanslı idim örümcek pembe bir çiçeğin üzerinde idi ama makina kötü hava hafif kararmaya başlamıştı
İyi günler
