brain54:Okay, it was still there and I took another shot. It kinda behave like a spider and another thing it is very hard to take it off a branch ones it grab it. It just keep going round the branch without falling off. I took it back to the spot I picked it from after the pix.

Closest I can guess… It belongs to the arachnid family. But the particular one I cannot tell. Maybe someone else will have your answer. You can also try google search! |

brain54:Okay I did a reverse image search on got it. Misumena vatia is a species of crab spider with a holarctic distribution. In North America, it is called the goldenrod crab spider or flower (crab) spider,[1] as it is commonly found hunting in goldenrod sprays and milkweed plants. They are called crab spiders because of their unique ability to walk sideways as well as forwards and backwards. Both males and females of this species progress through several molts before reaching their adult sizes, though females must molt more to reach their larger size. Females can grow up to 10 mm (0.39 in) while males are quite small, reaching 5 mm (0.20 in) at most. Misumena vatia are usually yellow or white or a pattern of these two colors. They may also present with pale green or pink instead of yellow, again, in a pattern with white. They have the ability to change between these colors based on their surroundings through the molting process. They have a complex visual system, with eight eyes, that they rely on for prey capture and for their color-changing abilities. Sometimes, if Misumena vatia consumes colored prey, the spider itself will take on that color. 1 Like |
