Arachtober 18th Misumena vatia male
This species seems to be most commonly found in the boundary region between grass and scrub, such as the edges of woodland rides but it also occurs in more open locations. It may be found in the vegetation, or sitting on a flower head waiting for prey. In adult males the abdomen is much, much smaller than the female’s (males, as a whole, are only about 1/4 to 1/3 the size of the adult females).
