The flower crab spider, Misumena vatia, has a perfect colour match to the petals of this daisy, where it is laying in wait to ambush its prey.

Flower Crab Spider (Misumena vatia)
It is often seen on flowers awaiting the arrival of pollinating insects to feed
I normally see these in white, but today saw a lovely yellow one (unfortunately without my camera, so phone will have to do)

Day 4: Crab spiders: Crab spiders have the ability to walk sideways. The flower crab spider (Misumena vatia) can change color to suit the flowers on which it sits. #bekindtospidersweek #bekindtospidersweek2024 #flowercrabspider #colorchangingspider #naturejournaling #arthistoryscienceandmystery

Spotted this beautiful Flower Crab Spider yesterday! It has ATP synthase, mitochondria, the electron transport chain & so much more going on inside it, just like us! Find models to teach these topics & more here: buff.ly/9dltsTp
