Thomisidae sp.
Crab spider is a common name applied loosely to many species of spiders, but most nearly consistently to members of the family Thomisidae. Among the Thomisidae it refers most often to the familiar species of "flower crab spiders", though not all members of the family are limited to ambush hunting in flowers. This one got kicked to the side by a Delta Scarab.
Wildlife habitat with many native plants, this one being a Leucanthum.
Yellow body, light brown legs, smooth shiny cephalothorax.
