Lynx Spider

Description:

Green Lynx spiders, like all others in the family Oxyopidae, are diurnal, that is, they hunt during daylight hours. Their hunts are conducted much like those of the jumping spiders (Salticidae); they roam low foliage, leaping about looking for prey items. They trail a dragline when leaping, but never construct webs for prey capture. Their eyesight is not as keen as the jumping spiders, and they more often use the "wait and pounce" hunting tactic
