great catch! I think your predator is some kind of jumping spider (they eat and hunt other spiders by jumping into the nets of orb weavers), and the prey is definitely an Araneidae spider.

Seems like the prey is a female Araneidae spider.

Either that (my suggestion) or Camaricus maugei.

That is an amazingly lucky shot! Fantastic!

Great action... A spider is eating another..!!
