Oxyopes sp.
This lynx spider was very much swift. It pounced on a Long-legged fly and caught it before it could even try to escape. The spider's head was orange and two vertical white stripes are present. The abdomen is white in the upper side and a orange vertical band separates the two white regions in the abdomen. The underside of the abdomen is dark brown in color and a white line is present in between the dark brown colored regions. The size was almost 7-8 mm.
