Oxyopidae sp.
Seen it on a Hibuscus plant. Probably he/she was busy. They all are hunting spiders that spend their lives on plants, flowers and shrubs. At least one species has been identified as exhibiting social behaviour. There are several genera and they tend to differ in their habits and adaptations. Some occupy flowers and wait for pollinating insects, whereas others lie in wait on plant stalks or bark.
Near flowering gardens.
