Garden spider

Description:

I found it in a Coelogyne flower at the backyard. It was 1cm across. Please enlarge the picture to see 'the face'. It is far from being a good macro shot, but this spider has some nice eyes!

Habitat:

Urban capture

It's a crab spider (Thomisidae).
Nice colors and patterns.

Nice shot!
Look like some kind of Lynx spider (Oxyopidae sp.) maybe a young Peucetia viridans. http://www.animalsandearth.com/photo/vie...
