Field Notes

Description:

This small crab spider has found a small snack sized midge fly.
It has a white diamond outline on its abdomen as my previous spotting does but it lacks the strong green color.

It was found on similar mimosa (Acacia ) flowers as was a darker one found last week by Leuba.

Habitat:

On Golden Wattle now flowering strongly and producing a wonderful hunting ground for small spiders of all shapes and colors.
