Ant mimicking Jumping Spider

Myrmarachne

Description:

When I first spotted this 'ant' I thought it was one eating the body of another, but on looking closer I think it's one with a very long snout???? The one and only spotting and it certainly fooled me. Not an ant at all. UNBELIEVABLE!! A spider mimicking an ant
