Lynx Spider & Prey
Oxyopes javanus & Amata sp.
15.4557, 119.92
Field Notes
Description:
This Oxyopes javanus (Lynx Spider) with an Amata sp. (Wasp Moth) in its grasp, was spotted in the same place as my two similar spottings yesterday. So, it seems that there was a numerous convergance of these spiders and moths. Wonderful for the predators, but not so great for the prey!
Habitat:
The Lynx Spider and its prey, the Wasp Moth were spotted on a huge tangle of Tropical White Weed (Ageratum conyzoides) on a patch of land between rice fields.
Notes:
These two spottings are both from the day before the present spotting
