Green lynx spider

The female reaches a body length of 22 millimeters; the more slender male averages 12 millimeters. There usually is a red patch between the eyes, with red spots over the body. The eye region is clothed with white appressed hairs. The legs are green to yellow, with very long black spines, and covered with black spots.
Gravid females are able to change their color to fit their background. This takes about 16 days.
The female constructs one to four 2-centimeter egg sacs in September and October, each containing 25 to 600 bright orange eggs, which she guards, usually hanging upside down from a sac and attacking everything that comes near. The eggs hatch after about two weeks, and after another two weeks fully functional spiderlings emerge from the sac. They pass through eight instars to reach maturity. This non venomous spider is usually found on foliage
The green lynx spider very seldom bites humans, and its bite is harmless though painful.
