I wonder, ChiefRedEarth!

What a delightfully hairy little spider!

Extra ordinary spider! Does this hair saves it from the heat?

Thanks, ForestDragon, for the info. I thought it looked like a crab spider, too...will research more!

Wow, Bernadette! Really neat spider. It looks like a species of crab spider, but I haven't ever seen one so hairy! Just did a quick search. Perhaps it is from Genus Heriaeus. I am really not sure, so I would suggest a bit more research!
