A tiny Thomisidae, Crab Spider with yellow head, green abdomen, and yellowish green legs. Male. About 5mm from forehead to the tip of its tail.
Sabah Tea Gaden, Ranau, Sabah, Malaysia.
While searching for new species of spiders in Sabah Tea Garden, this little guy crawl up to me to my hand when I walked past the tea plantation. I was excited because I have never seen this species before (even in the Internet). If this is a new species, I'll name its common name "Green Tea Crab Spider". 2nd photo taken from my dad. >>>Map accuracy : 100m diameter.
