Lynx Spider

Oxyopidae

Description:

Lynx spiders are roving hunters commonly associated with the shrubby and grassy understorey of Sydney's forests and woodlands, heathlands and suburban gardens. Many Lynx spider species have colourfully striped abdomens and spiky legs (From Australian Musuem Website) This paticular one was around 1.5 cm in length (0.59 inches)

Habitat:

Saw this one one waiting for a nice insect to come along on a catnip plant in my garden :-) (pretty sure that's what the plant is)
